First Giggle

The radio was playing blues; I danced and in my arms My 3 month grandson focused on Exuding all his charms. But suddenly to my surprise A brand-new trick emerged - A flat-out giggle, loud and clear And oh, my heart just surged. He giggled then a bunch more times So his intent was clear - The music and the movement Set his giggle track in gear. I will not witness all his firsts But this one was a thrill, For laughter is a trait of which I'll never get my fill.

3 months already, my oh my. The clock keeps ticking by and by. A wiggle and a giggle brought you such joy today. I'd take that clock up on the wall and just throw it away. Peace. :) ;0

this is awesome, Ilene. I remember dancing with Hyrum when he was only half a year old and how he loved it! Hard to believe he is 11 years old now and has no rhythm. hahaha
