Belly laugh, guffaw
Chortle, giggle and snicker
All the sounds we love
Even when they get bigger
Giggle, laugh
Cackle with mirth
Precious and small
The salt of the earth
Shrieking with pleasure
Squeal with delight
Butterfly kisses
Tuck them in tight
These are only
A few little things
Our sweet babies give us
What blessings they bring
Indeed they do!

See… You were my inspiration, or at least my muses, but then again aren’t they really the same thing? ;-)))
Have a blessed day! I’ll be extremely spotty, at best, on WP for the next week. Doing a quick vacation/high school reunion this weekend. We leave early, early in the morning! ;-)))

Have fun at your high school reunion! It should provide much fodder for your writing.

Aww …. ❤ ! Reminds me of the sign on the wall at the pediatrician's office: "My day is complete; I've heard a child laugh."
