my problem

so, I haven't been keeping up with my 2008 goal of posting almost every day. One reason is I haven't been taking pictures... why? I don't know. And when I try to write stuff, I just get... simultaneously overwhelmed by everything there is to write about and unable to think of anything good to say. I'd hate to disappoint you, my faithful readers (how many of you are threre? 3? 4?) And, this blog is about Lucca, so I don't want to veer too far off topic. So, here are my current thoughts about my sweet baboo, unadorned and just written down, in no particular order:
1. he's cute, and gets cuter every single day
2. he's started to bring me objects sometimes; when he finds something of interest, sometimes now his first impulse is to show me, rather than put it straight into his mouth. sometimes.
3. i feel so lucky that he is healthy and bright, and heartbroken that some people aren't so lucky.
4. he now runs to me for hugs, smiling and laughing.
5. sometimes when i ask him for a kiss, he'll offer me his cheek. so coy.
6. we bought him a recorder, and he figured out how to blow into it and make a sound, but he's shy about it; he won't do it when urged, but then a few minutes later he'll do it from under the table or something.
7. did I mention the cuteness? it's ridiculous.

oh, i just love him so much.
ok, that's all for now.

This is a beautiful post. Thank you for sharing these tender thoughts. You and M. Lucca are wonderfully close. Motherhood is wonderful (so far). I'm amazed as daily there are new things to observe, new progress made, new cuteness achieved. And I share your sentiment #3 so strongly - it's so fortunate to have a bright, healthy, happy, loving baby.

This regular reader encourages more posting!!!! More pictures!!!!

The high altitude contingent DEMANDS more photographic evidence of said cuteness.

Love, faithful readers,
