Oh, Bihari, thank you! I was starting to get a little freaked out at having no comments on this particular post, like maybe...my kid isn't cute after all but no one wanted to tell me? Could it be?
I mean, I can bolster my very own ego in the absence of comments, but hey, my kid, you know?
But now I am reassured. Whew. Thanks.
And Anna! Thank you too! You're so nice! You must have just commented at the same time I did above.
What an adorable little girl! I love the story of possible bribery for a smiling school picture.
such a beauty. thanks so much for sharing her with us all!
I can see why. What a cutie!
Those pictures are making me smile too. What a sweetie!!!
Aww... you guys! Thanks!
What a little doll!
We all get one with a note written on the back, right?
What a truly gorgeous girl :)
I frequently look at pictures of my baby girl on my computer, even when she is sitting right in front of me. And whenever I email pictures of her to other people, I look again and again at the shots I emailed, wondering if the recipients will see one tenth of what I see. One's own child is such a thing of beauty and perfection, though I don't know why captured images seem so compelling in the face of the real thing. But they do.
