fifteen months old
back to the baby book we go
another precursor to my future
pretty accurate then and now.
not so much the running.
—
“walks and runs real well. understands almost anything you tell her. climbs on everything.
also started kissing at 15 months.”
– my mom
—
“once we believe in ourselves, we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight,
or any experience that reveals the human spirit.”
– e. e. cummings
I didn't have my glasses on....

People joke about voting early and often. Seems like you started kissing early; you’ll have to vouch for the often.

It appears you were very bright at 15 months…or bright enough to know that kissing was a good life skill. Either way, I am sure you were as adorable then as you are now!
