Today Tessa woke up with a lot of loud passing of wind. But she didn’t cry. When I proceeded to massage her tummy, she gave that very still, pinched-mouth look. Candy says that’s her ‘bangsai’ face (special face for when she has bowel movements, for the uninitiated).
But the highlight was when I started singing Edelweiss to her, and she suddenly beamed into a wide smile! She was clearly responding to my singing. Because when I stopped and then started singing again, her smile got bigger! I had never seen her look so happy before.
I looked at my lovely little daughter smiling back at me, and imagined the years we would have enjoying each other, and my heart leaped in joy and happiness. Thank God for designing us for loving relationship!
Probably my favorite photo of Tessa so far (13 Sept 2010)
Awwww…. so sweet… :)
Hey Victor! One day you should let Tessa watch ‘The Sound of Music’ :) Then maybe she’ll join choir like you did. Hope you guys are having fun! :D
