happy girl

Over the past week Mikayla has been in a great mood! It brings a smile to my fact just thinking about it. Lately we can simply look at Mikayla and she will start to giggle. We can start to talk to her and she will giggle. We take a step towards her and she giggles. As you can tell pretty much anything will make her giggle right now! She watches Jennifer with a huge smile on her face. It has been so much fun to watch her. What joy this sweet girl brings to our home.

Ok so this picture isn't of her smiling but it makes me smile. One day last week Bill was feeding Mikayla some lunch. She was getting tired and fading fast but she kept eating. She would close her eyes a little bit and her head would start to fall. Bill would then say "Do you want a bite?" Mikayla would slowly lift her head and open her mouth, take a bit and then close her eyes again. Bill and I were cracking up. This happened several times before Bill decided maybe he should just let her go to sleep. She just needed a few more bites before really going to sleep. I sometimes wish I could just fall asleep like this.
