I know by now that this is never a good sign — especially lately as Liam has been either sneezing, coughing, or crying for the past four or five days — so he’s really easy to hear when he’s not in my lap (which is where he’s been for 95% of that time). A few minutes ago things got really quiet. I could see his head around the corner in the living room — but I couldn’t see his body. This scenario occurs daily and usually he’s “reading” a book. I assumed that this is what he was doing this time as well. I was wrong. When I came around the corner, I saw this:
It’s one of the first smiles I’ve seen in a while. It’s not his usual ear-to-ear grin, but it’s something. At this point, I’ll take it.
Hey, what’s the big deal? He just needed to blow his nose.
