I think it all started with a little Pop Culture. (You need to click on this one to see his expression)
Then...tucked neatly into his bed, Shimmy enjoyed some lullabies from his Mama
Until finally he could repress it no longer....that smile!! The one that we'd been missing for the last week. It's back.
Granted it's well balanced with lots of other expressions letting us know how he's feeling about the needles and lines and poking and prodding but holy crap the smiles tonight were a huge gift. It's kinda like when he wasn't in the hospital and would take us right to the edge (with sleeping, baths, etc) and then throw us a bone. Big bone today :-DLove to you all.

Hey, I know that smile! He gave one like that to me a week or so ago. Naturally I assumed it was just gas and nothing to do with me, but man, if he can crank out a big one like that hooked up to all that bid'ness, that means he's really smiling! And, that means the one he cranked out for me must have been genuine too. Sigh . . . melt . . . that's good stuff. Thanks for posting that photo, you guys. That kid is one helluva trooper. Yo, Simon! Me next!! love, Carolyn
