The Smile


Jack has one of those faces that makes anyone smile. Whenever we go out in public, people always check him out and grin at him. It is hard to tell sometimes if it is because people think he is odd looking or very cute. Of course we think he is the most gorgeous baby in the world. Every parent's child is that way to them. But, the number of people who vocally tell us he is handsome or good looking puts us at ease.

Jack's secret trick is not just his cuteness. It is the fact that he is beginning to know he is this cute. At bedtime, he uses smiles and giggles to try and keep us from putting him to bed. He knows we cannot resist. But, when we trudge through the attack of baby beauty, he cries in defeat. It just makes it that much harder when you see the fake tears roll down his pudgy cheeks.

So, the moral of this post is: when you see Jack, be careful! One smile may be your downfall!
