seriously, the whole nonverbal kid thing is fine and dandy. it's normal. after 17 (almost 18!) years of being meg's mom, I am totally used to picking up on facial expressions and occasional babble noises. she's almost always happy and good natured, and I do recognize that we've been blessed in that way.

but sometimes she cries. sometimes she cries for absolutely no apparent reason, and that's when I feel completely helpless.
