Dear 2 month old daughter,

When you look at me and smile that gummy, toothless grin and give me a little snorty laugh it melts my heart completely and I don’t ever want that moment to end because I know that there will come a day when just the simple sight of my face won’t bring about that gleeful response. But until then I am super-mom, the most important person in your life!

…and then you turn to the pile of washcloths folded on the back of the sofa and give it that same gummy, toothless grin and a snorty laugh even greater than the one you gave me and my mommy super-powers are deflated. womp womp.

I won’t take it personally, but as your mother I should caution you about your choice of friends. I’m just sayin’.

love, mom
