Lily's first smile.

Lily has been a very smiley baby from the very beginning. Lots of people have said that it was "just gas" or some such nonsense but really its just that Lily is a very happy little girl. One day, Mommy was looking at Lily and suddenly, Lily smiled the biggest smile and the happiest smile that Mommy had ever seen! It was February 16, 2006 and being only 2 days after Valentine's day, Mommy thought that was the BEST belated Valentine she had ever gotten in her whole life. Daddy was at work just then so he didn't get a chance to see the prettiest smile of Lily's which made him feel a little bit sad.

Just a few days later, though, Daddy got his chance. It wasn't the usual thing but this week Daddy had to work on a Saturday. When he was done working, he called Mommy so she would know he was on his way home. Mommy knew that Daddy would want to see his girl and so she wanted Lily to be very clean and good smelling for her dad so they could cuddle lots. Lily was having her diaper changed when Daddy walked in. He said "Hi" to Mommy and gave her a kiss. Then he looked down at Lily and said, "Hi there little girl!" Daddy smiled at Lily. Then, Lily looked at Daddy and smiled her beautiful and lovely smiley smile. Daddy was SOOOOOO proud and SOOOOOO happy that he just about busted at the seams. His eyes got a little bit teary because his girl had smiled at him and he was very glad.

She's such a beautiful and very lucky baby. When I see you all three together it's a perfect picture. A perfect happy family!
