Sweet Sounds
By Richie Ann Ashcraft
When I named my son after a philosopher, I didn't stop to think what that may do to his personality.
Soren is a very serious little man. He looks at the world around him with a mostly stony face. In most pictures he is in complete thoughtful observation.
But he finally laughed!
(Sigh of relief) Thank goodness. I was starting to think he didn't have a sense of humor; my own being a little off at times.
He finds the voice of Yoda funny. Who would have known he was a Star Wars fan? But, sure enough, a little Yoda voice and some cheek pinching got a couple of bonifide giggles out of the little guy.
It was a week late, but I finally got my Mother's Day present. As predicted, my eyes did well up with pride and joy.
The laughter of babies is the best sound in the whole world!
