sugar, spice & beyond...



thumbsucking
&
toe holding

spending time on her tummy

giant take-up-half-her-face smiles
&
adorable giggles

wearing the same sunsuit every other day

cracking up at her big brother
&
making her big brother crack up at her

waking up talking


rolling over
& over
& over
& over

covering her eyes with her arm while she eats

sleeping with bum the in the air
&
thumb in the mouth

turning toward daddy, mama & Q's voice

waiting for her hair to grow
&
buying barettes for when it does

giant you-go-girl burps

grabbing at everything
&
putting it all in her mouth

melting hearts all over lane county

sweet smells
&
big dreams

that’s what my little girl is made of…
