Last night Maren had a first. She laughed. Not a half-chuckle, but a true all-out laugh, and it was in response to Ezra!
Daddy was at a stake orchestra rehearsal, so just the three of us were doing our bedtime routine. After Book of Mormon reading, we sang songs. Ezra was very animated and chattering between songs about construction sites, and muffins, and the moose at Cabela's. Maren was grinning and cooing at him, highly entertained by his silly jabbering. And then, Ezra did something--I'm not even sure what--and Maren let out the most beautiful delighted laugh. It was only a moment, but what a moment! I think better days are coming. Maren loves Ezra! Maren enjoys Ezra's company! Perhaps in a coming day Ezra was realize that Maren is wonderful too.
