We’ve been having fun with Ruby for her whole life, often finding amusement at her expense. She’d do something silly, clumsy, or weird and we’d laugh about it.
Now, things have risen to a whole new level – I often find myself sharing the joke with Ruby. One of us does something funny, and we both laugh together, sharing eye contact and a chuckle, enjoying the mutual moment. It’s so much more fulfilling to be laughing with her instead of just at her.
Granted, the jokes are pretty unsophisticated and mainly consist of funny faces and silly noises, but it still feels like substantial progress.
