how to make your own dimple
Did you know you could make your own dimples? It's true! After a couple months, I am convinced that that's just what our Abby has done. A dimple appeared on her right cheek earlier this summer. I've never noticed it before; how could I have not known my own daughter had a dimple? A handful of other people began to comment on it, and so I became convinced it really was new. At some point I realized it was in the same spot that she had hit and bruised earlier in the summer while attempting to jump off a water table [welcome to my life, mother to Abby :)]. So I mentioned jokingly to a few people that her bruise had turned into a dimple. But you know what? I think it's true. Dimples, while seen as attractive and beautiful in our culture, really are a muscle deformity [I wikipedia'ed it]. I have looked at it closely and when she's not smiling, there is the tiny littlest bit of purple bruise still there. And then when I have her smile, the dimple appears in that same spot. Thus I fully believe that she fell, bruised her cheek, and created her own dimple. While it's certainly a cute outcome, don't try this at home.
