Bath Fun

Maryam loves the water. She would sit in the bathtub all day if I let her. We have a nice big soaking tub, and it gives her lots of space to crawl around in. She has discovered the fun of splashing mommy, and gets a kick out of getting as much water out of the tub as she can.
She is such a joyful baby. When I put her in a swing, she just giggles. When her brothers come home from school, she gets so excited her body literally wiggles. When her daddy comes home, she screams (from joy, not horror). She scans the area for anyone who will smile at her, and gives them a huge grin. Life is so full of wonder for my little babe, and life is just good. I pray that this joyful disposition stays with her throughout her life.

Maryam really loves her doggie. Sera is so patient with Maryam, much more so than the cats. Every morning, the three of us go on a nice walk to the park, where Sera chases her ball and Maryam swings on the baby swing. Sera gets sooooo excited, and Maryam just loves watching her. She'll turn her head to whatever direction Sera goes, and gets frustrated when her dog is out of sight. Sera loves Maryam for dropping all sorts of food on the ground. Maryam loves Sera because she's entertaining and interesting. Theirs is truly a balanced relationship.
