Felix’s laughter rang through the cozy living room, warm and golden like the sun spilling in through the half-drawn curtains. His feet padded against the hardwood floor as he raced toward you, your six-month-old baby girl cradled against his chest, her soft coos mingled with his joyous chuckles.

"Look at her!" Felix’s voice was breathless, exhilarated. His dark eyes sparkled like starlit pools, wide with wonder as he stopped before you. "She did it—she sat up on her own, babe. Can you believe it?"

He knelt, lowering your little girl into your lap. Her tiny body wobbled, determination etched into her delicate features as she worked to hold herself upright. Her cheeks, rosy as dawn, dimpled with a gummy smile that mirrored Felix’s uncontainable grin.

"Our little girl, she’s growing so fast."
