He'll Reach Out And Grab Ya!

Just this afternoon during a feeding, Peyton rolled over onto his back and gazed up at me. He stared intently into my eyes. Then, his sweet little hand reached right up and he gently explored my face. He will often grab my shirt collar or sleeve and recently began to pet my arm, or hand, or chest, rhythmically while feeding. Until today however, he had not reached out for my face with such obvious purpose. He stroked my cheek, touched my nose, tickled my lips...only for a moment. Several moments actually. We just locked eyes and enjoyed this wonderful moment together, mother and son.
