new face

this is Huntleigh's newest face. as a viewer of my blog, you may be indifferent to such photos or find it no different from the others, but as her mom, I love these faces. they only last for a brief period of time and it would be great to remember all of them. if you have met huntleigh, you know that this is the face she makes when she is happy to see someone new. she typically will not make this face for me because i am not someone new: i am that woman who says "no" to her when she prefers to get her own way. but i caught her at a good time--early in the morning, just after waking up--and she performed for the camera, exactly like i wanted her to.


i am leaving her for a week to go to Colorado and so i just could never get enough of this face. oh sweet baby, i love you. i am going to miss you so much.
