So, me and Sammy (not really Sammy) go everywhere together, obviously. It is so fun. She talks to me and sings for me, smiles and laughs so much. She takes her baths in the big tub now and it is so funny to watch her swim, putting her head back as far as she can. She loves a mirror and even manages to see her reflection in the oven. But most of all, what I love is how she makes my world kind. Babies have no prejudice. You can have bad breath, big hair or nothing to wear and she loves you just the same. Your jokes can be terrible, you timing all wrong, your intelligence minimal, yet she looks at you like you're worth a million bucks. Instantly, you are. Samara loves everyone. She smiles at fat and thin, black and white, friend and foe. She clutches at the hands of strangers and coos without inhibition at the slightest joy. I wonder how great it would feel to love this much....well, I am slowly learning from my little girl.
