Pretty Merry Sunshine

Between the hours of 4 and 5 each morning, little Bella Maria wakes up and decides that it's time to giggle. It is at these times that I bring her into the living room and set her somewhere and I tickle the side of her chin or her belly and tell her she's my Little Merry Sunshine. She laughs and laughs for about an hour when the laughing then turns to crying and we go back to bed.
