A Few Words About Tickling

Baby’s ticklish, though not all the time. Sometimes, I’ll rub her ribs a little, and she’ll be perfectly still. Other times, I’ll tickle her just the same way and she’ll laugh and laugh. Her favorite way to be tickled that so far is for me to rub my scalp against her ribs. Something about it – either the hair on my head or the snorting sound I make while doing it – is as close to a sure-fire giggle fit as I’ve found. For the record, I followed her up the stairs today for three more assaults on Everest.
