the most rewarding experience in the world is when you get a short glimpse of the little one’s smile, that is just too rare for the camera. since the day she decided to make her smile public, i have yet to take a decent picture of her in all gummy-grin glory. finally, i think she heard my pleas to at least smile for mommy (and the waiting phone camera in hand):

so i would wait and stare at her while she sleeps just to see her smile, and that would just make my day.
