The sound of one boy laughing

Well it's Friday. Nancy is off to the Great Western Paso Fino Association General Meeting in Grand Junction and I have the day off so that I can get in some serious Sean hogging.

So I figured it was about time to get something up on the blog.

This is a little something about Sean - I have written about it before but I cannot remember whether I put it up here or not. Well if I did - oh well.

When Sean was very small - a few months old I guess - he was in his crib one evening and nancy was bending over him undoing the snaps on his baby clothes she ran her finger over his ribs - you know, as Moms do with their babies - and Sean, who had always had an enchanting grin, let out a shriek of laughter.

Nancy jumped up in the air in surprise. Sean lay there with a happy grin on his face and Nancy and I looked at each other in complete surprise. It was the first sound I ever remember him making.

Nancy , of course, could not resist trying again. Sean shrieked with laughter. He has the most amazing laugh.

The sound of Sean's laughter, music to the ears.
