Saturday, May 08, 2004       ( 8:42 AM ) Lostcheerio   Sadie likes to hold hands. She's intensely interested in the whole grasping/grabbing/probing/feeling thing, and she really likes to play with our hands. Yesterday we were in the car and I was sitting in the seat beside her because she was a little fussy, and I gave her my hand. She was grasping it and grasping it with her little tiny star-like hands, and making increasingly mouselike noises, and then I looked over and she was ASLEEP - she fell asleep holding hands. The sweetness of it is just unendurably piercing. She is just the NICEST little girl that there ever ever was. Round little head and all. Too charming. #
