All Smiles

I've never seen a smiling face that was not beautiful.  ~Author Unknown

Today, our littlest man turned 6-weeks old.  And how did he reward us?  With the most precious of smiles. 

I saw his precious mouth starting to turn up at the corners a week or so ago, but thought it was way too early to truly be a smile.  Probably just gas.  :)

But tonight…oh how my heart melted tonight when during our “documenting” photo session he turned all smiles on me!  I was overcome with joyful tears. 

It’s almost as if he’s saying, “I know how happy I make you, momma.  And just think…you don’t have to go back to work.  Ever.” 

Okay, that might be a bit of a stretch.  But for the foreseeable future, there is no outside-of-the-home work for me and that makes ME smile!  (In the past, 6-weeks marked the half-way point of my maternity leave…usually causing sadness to begin swelling in my heart as tears were welling in my eyes!)

Wishing you all a night full of sweet dreams and smiles!

P.S.  I added music back on to my blog.  Feel free to turn it off if you are distracted by the music or in a position to not be able to listen.  I will say that I added two of my favorite “baby” pieces of music.  Beautiful Boy by John Lennon and Baby Mine from the Dumbo soundtrack by Walt Disney.
