The child has known nothing yet but love and beauty. All this piled-up world knowledge you have acquired is unguessed at by her. And yet you meet this wonderful look that tells you in a moment more than all the years of experience have seemed to teach.
~ Hildegarde Hawthorne
The photo is a little grainy, a little blurry, and to me it’s wonderful just as it was taken. I think Miss Maddy looks like a little Buddha, all lit up with joy.
In another year, maybe less, she’ll have lost the baby face and I’ll stop posting photos of her. I’m glad I can share this one now. 🙂
