Lovey Dovey


Tomorrow is Valentines Day, the day on which sweethearts express their love for one another. As we are madly in love with our daughter, we have planted kisses all over her since the day she was born. Now Lia's ways of expressing her affection for us have been rather miserly. Thus we greatly enjoy the moments in which she leans her face against ours or happily slaps our faces. Kindly enough, Lia has refined her love repertoire for Valentines Day: She now calls both of her parents 'Mama' in a singsong manner (with a rising intonation) and has also learned to give wet kisses on the mouth. Sometimes she forgets that the mouth plays an important aspect and simply offers us her forehead. She will have to work on that, cause we prefer wet and teethy kisses to pope-like blessings.

Watch Lia dance the dance of love. (video!)

Right now it seems that Lia will conduct the orchestra in front of the stage rather than dance on it ...

Will the lovely Princess Lia be a ballerina or an orchestra conductor? Only time will tell... in the meantime, I will just stay madly in-love with her. Liam

haha, she sleeps like Asala (who, as Mohamed keeps telling us, sleeps like one of his many, many sisters, which one I forgot) - so I guess it must be a good dose of Middle Eastern genes (errrr - Middle Eastern? Is that another instance of Sachsen Anhalt- and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern-confusion? I'm not sure .... )

Wait, is that a sleeping peanut, or a little kitty cat?! Cuuuute!
