Peter started laughing when he was just a few months old. At first, his laugh was a burble -- like a brook. Sandra (who keeps him a few days a week) said that Cohen (who's 4) had asked one day about the sound Peter made, and she explained that he was laughing. He used to laugh like a nut when I played pattycake with him, and then a bit later when we played peek-a-boo. He still enjoys those games sometimes, but they don't make him laugh the way they used to. Now he laughs loudly, big "ha ha ha!" kinds of laughs. These are some of the things that he finds funny these days. I wish I had started this list earlier.
1. Seeing someone he loves -- mama, dada, Lily -- come into the room.
2. Having mama whisper silly sounds against the back of his cheeks and neck.
3. Watching dada pretend to scare him with funny faces.
4. The word blah-blah-blah.
5. Being tickled on his kneecaps and behind his knees.
6. Other people laughing.
