I found a new laugh ....

A giggly light fluttering sing-song laugh. Oh yes, my 4 year old daughter has a new sound, who knew? I found it yesterday, tickling, kissing, wiggling, and telling her that I adore her! I'm not kidding... she absolutely has a new laugh, a new expression of joy! This one seemed to be so light, and pure, and present.... yet full at the same time. There wasn't any effort, no aim and certainly no exaggeration (as girls will sometime do ;-)
It's difficult to describe how precious and delightful it was to find it.... I was amazed, who knew she had a different one hiding in there waiting to be bubble forth. I certainly didn't wake up expecting to find another treasure in her giggle box. Wow! How lucky am I?
And I must say that I *love* it when I am this awake or present to notice the bountiful wonders all around me.... such gifts and riches amongst us all (but you knew that already ;-)
X marks the spot, within my daughter's heart!
In joy,
Stacy
What treasure have you found today? recently? ..... Mmmm, do tell!

What a delightful description of your discovery! I was right there laughing with you! My treasure today was standing in the kitchen, turning around and seeing the making of new friends. Who knew? New friends are every where. Since I can't figure out how to post the picture here, you'll have to see it on my Zaadz blog…
Oh yes! Children are the great explorers of the caverns of our hearts!
My 3 year old started laughing a new way last November that melted me completely! It is hard to describe… sort of with rounded lips like I have sometimes seen chimps do… but the sound was completely different… like the cooing of a dove!! (and yea, so deliriously genuine, and clear…. like bubbling joy!!
Hello Lauren <hug>
Great photo of “new friends” in your album…. once again, you create/ encourage harmony in your home, critters in all!
Hi Catherine~
Thanks for commenting… You crossed my mind as I wrote this as I imagined that you have found such treasures with your daughters (I'm a fan of your poetry/ blogs)
My daughters are certainly teaching me a thing or two about exploring, yes! And I love to engage them as the exploratory terrain in which to adventure :-D
