Abby. What have you been eating?
Nothing, Mom. Really. Nothing.

Hair
Cleaning her room, I take the next load of laundry to the machine.
Upon my return, I find that she has decided to clean something more specific.
The drawer with the miscellaneous sundries required for infant and toddler development was open.
The tiny infant nail scissors removed.
Upon my return, I find that she is taking that first cut of hair…so proud to be grooming. Inevitable.
That drawer will be emptied. All sundries out of reach.
My jaw has been removed from the floor.
Smile-Cam
I like to call it the spy-cam but that sounds a bit sneaky.
It’s a humor-cam. It’s a comfort-cam. It’s an “I wonder”-cam.
Not only does it show a girl in restful sleep, but also the sweet play of that toddler when she’s up from her slumber.
Trying on boots and coddling babies. Reading and rearranging. Emptying drawers and exploring in her dollhouse.
It’s my eye on imagination and my assurance of peace.
It’s my smile-cam.
