Emma smiles. When she does, it lights up the whole room and warms you to your toes. It has only been three days since she entered our lives and hearts. The first day, Emma slept most of the day and her greatest moments were gripping her sisters hand...she smiled only a few precious times and they were not yet the full face open mouth smiles we get now...they were timid....now, when she smiles her whole face and body smile...her eyes twinkle and curve upward into the sweetest smile...her nose crinkles, and her mouth..it opens and the smile stretches her beautiful red lips to show her toothless gums her mouth widely....her arms tighten and her legs kick with joy. When i think of the vacant look when we first held her and now see her eyes open and focus and her little heart have enough security to shriek with joy, I find myself smiling with my mouth wide open too.
