For example, after church today, Adiel was ready for lunch. After a few ounces, we paused for a burp break. I sat her down on my lap, facing me, and before I knew it she was reaching toward my shoulder for the burp cloth. Not only did she pull it off my shoulder, but she brought it to her mouth, burped, and held the cloth there to catch the spit up. Fancy coordination goin' on! If nothing else, she's a tidy baby.
During this momentous occasion (well, it was for us), Kirk's creative juices were a-flowin'! He was inspired to write a little ditty, using the hook from "She's a Lady" by Tom Jones. I think it's quite cute, so here it is for you to enjoy, as well. For our sweet girl, Adiel, turning 5 months today:
She's got style, she's got grace
She's got vomit on her face,
She's a Lady.
She's got sweaty little tootsies,
And a diaper full of poopsies,
She's a Lady.
All she does is flash a smile,
And Daddy's day is made worthwhile,
She's a Lady.
When she lets loose a burp,
People see me as the "perp",
She's a Lady.
When she cries for what she needs,
People with hearing start to plead,
She's a Lady.
With a sparkle in her eye,
She brings tears to Daddy's eyes,
She's a Lady,
She's My Adi.
