Eye "contact"

Looking back on Em's baby photos, I see so many pictures of her looking directly at the camera, from very early on.  She got used to mommy being in her face, and I became her paparazzo.  :)  I have done the same for Sades, taking many pictures of her daily life, trying to capture every moment.  What I have noticed from my Aphakic baby is that she has a very hard time focusing on something for more than 1 second (the vision teacher calls it "broken tracking"), so I am unable to get many pictures of her looking at the camera, smiling at me with her amazing beautiful face. It breaks my heart, and it's a new learning experience for me: trying desperately not to compare my little gal to other babies her age, or even her older sister.
But today I got the greatest gift - a picture of Sadie smiling at me. I'm not sure if God knew that I needed a "win" or if the contact lenses are helping her vision.  But I know that I will treasure this....forever.  

"Hi, Mommy!"
