Smiles

Thing 2 is all smiles. Well, not really ALL smiles. There is still a lot of crying too. Enough crying that Thing 1 knows that dogs say, "woof, woof," cats say, "meow" and she is learning that babies say, "waaaa!" Even though it's not all smiles, the smiles are nice when they happen. I wish that I could learn how to smile. I sometimes wonder what Thing 2 is smiling about. Is she thinking about how much fun it is when Thing 1 pushes her crazily in her swing? Is she thinking how nice it is to be relaxed and not being knocked around by Thing 1 in her swing? Maybe she's dreaming about how nice it would be to have an unlimited supply of cookies. That's what I dream about.
