Kissable cheeks

This little princess has the most kissable cheeks ever. They deserve their own blog post. Lily has quite a small mouth which I think adds to the drama of her cheeks but they are none the less quite big, squishy, warm and perfect for kissing.

Honestly, Lily is just such a sweet cuddly little darling that I can't resist giving her lots of kisses. She is nearly 5 months old already. The time passes too quickly. She'll only be a baby once and those cheeks (hopefully for her) will eventually retreat, so we all have to get our kisses in while we can.

Sometimes I wonder if babies know they're loved. I mean, they don't understand us when we say it. However, a baby feeling loved can make all the difference in their physical well-being, their mental capacity, their rate of development, their emotional health throughout life, and the over-all person they will become. That love is pretty important.

Lily is so easy to love. When you speak to her, her face absolutely lights up into a huge smile and her eyes twinkle. Though she can't speak, her little face and really her Spirit respond so keenly to attention. She loves people already and delights in social interaction. She is such a happy little thing, she brings light to all who interact with her.

We all love you so much Lily. You couldn't be more loved and adored by your family. You are such a blessing to us all. You and your kissable cheeks!
