Perfectly round

2009/07/29

The shape of Marlo’s features, mainly her head, are frequently the subject of discussion in our home. Leta had what’s called torticollis when she was born, a condition that caused her head to tilt to one side and grow in a diagonal shape. We had to do several months of physical therapy to remedy the condition, and so living with a baby this small with a head so perfectly round is something new around here. It’s like a basketball, or a cantaloupe, or a hairy head of cabbage. And we’re always going, look! Look at the size of that head! It’s like an orange on a toothpick! That’s a virtual planetoid! It has its own weather system!
