a birthday discovery

My kid is a genius. Today, on his one week birthday, he discovered his hands. Hands! Hands are so cool. Who knew we had such amazing appendages?

Of course, he can't yet consistently insert his hand into his mouth. But rather than frustrating him, this just means that every time his hand makes it somewhere in the vicinity of his mouth, it's time for rapt contemplation of the miracle that just occurred, followed by estatic chewing on the newly discovered hands.

I must remember to appreciate my hands more.
