When you have a baby, you get to hear all kinds of wonderful sounds. Coos and giggles and smacking lips. As they get bigger, you get baby blowing raspberries and a real laugh. Then you get a Mama or a Dada, and your heart just melts.

I am sitting here at the computer and heard another little sound that is so sweet, tiny hands slapping the floor. Samuel is crawling about and his hands make the daintiest smacking sound on our hardwood floors.

Off to snuggle him and hear some laughter and maybe, justmaybe, a Mama too.
