Jude had his lip repaired on October 29th.
Look at his wonderful "new" smile!!!
I'm amazed.
I'm thankful.
It's beautiful.
BUT.
I do miss his "first" smile.
Pure joy!
His big wide, adorable smile.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!!!! And I MISS, MISS, MISS it!
And you know what?
I must confess, I was nervous, afraid of his "first" smile.
I worried about his "first" smile for months before I met him.
I didn't know what to expect. I didn't want people to stare...to judge...to...oh, I don't know.....
I.Don't.Know.
I just don't know.....
What in the world was I so afraid of?????
THEN.
I.
MET.
HIM.
And EVERYTHING changed.
No fear.
Only love!
Those first - tentative "first" smiles.....while we were in China.....
Oh my!
Be still my heart!
Now.
He has THIS smile....
A sweet "new" smile.
A smile I can hardly resist.
That "first" smile.....it melted my heart.
This "new" smile?
Melts my heart FOREVER!
