A tray of
molded plastic and a safety belt held the infant in her highchair. She waved her hands in glee at the cubes of
carrots and round peas spread out on the tray before her. Her eyes twinkled with delight as she sought
to capture the bits of food. Her
reaching fingers snared a piece and raised the morsel toward her mouth. Not quite in control she mouthed her hand,
fingers and the bit of food.
Success was
noted in the smacking of lips and the working of toothless gums, her face
radiant with the satisfaction of feeding herself.
