Here's Laughing At You!

One of the greatest things to wake up to every morning is a smile. A smile can usher in a great day on the job, in school, on the road and quite frankly anywhere you will find yourself.

This morning I changed the morning routine a little. Instead of waiting for mommy to get ready and then once she was done get C.J. ready I pitched in. Getting C.J. up in the morning is a chore, she stretches, she yawns, she grunts and she makes it difficult for anyone involved. However today was a little different. After she interrupted my last half hour of sleep; you know that dimension of sleep that either makes you say you had a great not of sleep or that you did not sleep well at all. The last moments of sleep that usually cap off a great dream. The last few moments of sleep that can erase the bags from under your eyes, yes folks that sleep. I proceeded to wash her up. The funny thing is that she did not make a peep instead she began to giggle, laugh and smile. It was like she was happy she was being cleaned. As I continued my heart was full of excitement to see my little girl so happy. To me it means I am doing what I am suppose to do. I aim not to make her happy but so that she has joy running throughout her veins.

This morning was so fun getting her ready that I will attempt Day 2 in the morning. I hope the smiles and giggles come again because they helped kick daddy's week off more than she will ever know.

I am going to turn in early tonight so in parting you all always remember to pray because like I always say, "Prayer changes things!"
