Those Special Moments ... in Parenting

While giving my daughter a bath the other night during our normal goofing off, I put my face very close to hers. She giggled, then her eyes got very big and she became very quiet as she stared into my eyes. Puzzled, I asked "what do you see sweety?" No response. I didn't move, wanting to understand what was going on. Then it hit me. "Oh, you see yourself don't you?" She slowly nodded, not blinking. Finally she said "I see pictures!" I laughed and replied "Oh yeah? You see pictures of you? Pretty cool huh?" She smiled and said "Pretty cool."

Another moment passed, just us staring into each other eyes. Finally, I whispered "You know what? I see the world in your eyes." She seemed very pleased by this, and we went back to the serious work of goofing off.
