Da-po

this is my grandma holding salem at my cousins wedding. isn't she beautiful?

"NO!"

Salem's new word is "no!" with an attitude, of course. She learned it from her friend Josh, who learned it from their friend Jonathan, who learned it from who knows where. the beauty of living in community. We are entering terrible twos. i don't know if i am ready. but she still has so much sweetness in her i can't stand it. In the morning she likes to wake me up with gentle pats and tiny kisses and a soft, "mama." Then she wants her milk and cheerios in a cup so she can cuddle and snack until she goes to play with Josh. She's my love bug.
