New Cool Thing

In little Miss Haana's violin class, her teacher asked me today about miss Haana's little brother,   "So, what's the cool new thing he's been doing?". 

I thought there are quite a few things he's been doing lately... holding on to things tightly now, sleeping for longer in the night - a good 6-8 hours most days, moving hands and legs about etc. But I didn't say any of that. Because the coolest thing by far, that's so off the charts that it doesn't even compare is.. he laughs!

And that's not all. He likes people talking to him. So much so that sometimes if he's by himself, he cries out. And as soon as sometime comes along to check on him, and makes eye contact with him, he breaks into a smile! It's the sweetest smile! And then he coos and giggles and gurgles too. Enough to send us to the moon! 

The little boy making eye contact, 'talking' in earnest and giggling when he fancies, is the best thing ever!
