Someone once asked me what my favorite sound was. Today I realized what the answer to that question is.
Henry laughed for the first time.
I called my mom, aware that it was unlikely that I'd actually reach her; I still had to breathe in and out a couple of times fast so that I wouldn't start to cry when I left her the message on her phone. Yes- I am that much of a softie.
I spent the rest of the day trying to get him to laugh again and I got him going so hard that he got the hiccoughs.
Laughing is my favorite milestone with the first steps being my second favorite. So far, at least, that's true. So far nothing has given me as much joy as hearing my babies laugh for the first time.
It's a good day.
