How did we get off to such a quick start?

Greta is six months old. We wonder where the time went. Each day is so new and full of changes...Greta discovers something different every minute, and with each exciting discovery we find that our lives are more exciting and more enriched as well - more than I ever imagined!

Greta is full of life and love. She shows a dimple right underneath her right eye with every smile. Oh! And her smiles are also showing teeth! She has two front bottom teeth and is currently working on 3 top teeth all at once! She is almost ready for corn on the cob for the Fourth of July!

But, Greta doesn't give out smiles for just anyone. Never have I met a baby that is such a deep thinker and feeler...we call her sensitive, or maybe wise. Greta absorbs every energy around her. I have seen her study the faces of each family member or friend in the room - one by one, as she finds her place in our lives.

Greta loves her daddy and is very excited to celebrate his first Father's Day. Greta loves to feel his kisses on her cheeks and tummy - she giggles with abandon and squeals with glee. Greta thrives with his strong calming way and she adores his silly games.

Greta and me, her mommy, have a different way -I think we share heart strings. I think we are both in love.

Smiling and Playing
