Uriah was expressive from the beginning! His first smile was in the hospital - and first giggle followed a couple days later in the home. He'd make lots of coos and wide-mouth smiles in reaction to us. And, I admit, while he was sleeping. His legs were so scrawny that his diapers didn't hold in much - it'd escape out around the legs!
We had many visitors of our friends, church ministers or God's Resort board, and of course our neighbors.
We would soon be moving to Iowa, so while the family was there they were a large blessing in getting everything packed up - but amidst all of the busyness we were able to soak in the feeling of parenthood. A little scary, too! But we relish every touch of his soft skin and new stage of discovering sounds.
