Heart Breaker

The sentiment in a baby's eyes is astounding.  So much can be found in those pools of beauty.  They look at you with utter dependence and then can strip you down with a look of scorn for putting their favorite musical abomination of a toy into the toy basket.

But then they can pummel you with the warm fuzzies with the eye scrunch of a smile or melt your heart with the reddening of an impending cry.

Have you ever noticed the brightening of a baby's eyes when filled with tears?  The glossy brilliance of color shining through that wetness makes my heart go pitter pat.  Especially when in these eyes.

And this boy, he's not my favorite boy.  No sir.  Not with those baby blues, porcelain skin, and dimpled bottom.



Look at this face.  Pure emotion left on his cheek.  That one lone tear from a serious wail.

I had probably just picked a booger.
