smile




some of you know just how valuable these grins are to the whole family right now. at about 3 weeks old, j'bug started screaming and didn't stop for about 6 weeks. she's 10 and a half weeks old now, and she's just started to be a little more happy... i'm hoping that this is the tail end of things, and within a month or so, maybe it will be but a distant memory. right now she still cries -nay- screams like the devil himself is chasing her for a couple hours in the evening. I have been humming the tune to this familiar Michael Jackson tune lately, although i'm not sure who i'm trying to console more, me or her.

Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...

My second had colic starting about 2 wks old and improving at about 3 months. Screamed from at least 7-11 every night. I sympathize. It does pass. But oh, how I understood how frazzled parents might shake their baby during those months. Hang in there.
