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 [...]
