Happiness is a massage

There are few guarantees when it comes to parenthood, but the closest we have got is that Kirin is almost always happiest at massage and bathtime. Perhaps it has to do with establishing a routine, but I also think Kirin has a hedonistic tendency.

The evening ritual for Kirin is pretty simple. After the evening meal, Johanna or I will take off his clothes, get out the olive oil (that's what they recommend in UK rather than baby oils, because it's natural) and work those muscles and creaky bones. And boy, does he love it and the bath that follows. A smile like this never lies.
