All Smiles

Smiling babies are a delight. You just can't help but smile at a baby who's grinning up at you. Unless that baby is grinning up at you from his crib at 4:30 in the morning, indicating that said baby is wide awake and ready to be entertained, no matter how you may feel at 4:30 in the morning. And how you feel at 4:30 in the morning is, of course, in no condition to haul a baby downstairs and make happy, jolly conversation with the happy, jolly baby.

Substitute the first person for the "you" in the above paragraph and there you have my morning. I guess a smiling baby at 4:30 in the morning is better than a screaming baby at 4:30 in the morning, but I would much rather have a sleeping baby at 4:30 in the morning.

Maybe tomorrow morning.

If Cubby's great grandfather were with us, he might say "That baby needs a herd of cows to milk."
