I gave Claire her first taste of bananas about 70 minutes ago. It was only a 1/4 teaspoon, but she didn't seem like a fan. I am forcing myself to believe that her reaction means her taste buds have never experienced anything so sweet, and not that they instantly recognize something that will make her sick. Right now she is sleeping soundly in her crib. I hope that the next hour or two pass quickly. It's the first time in her life that I've wished and wished for time to go faster. No matter how much you mentally prepare for something, I doubt you can ever reach emotional preparedness.
Everything I've ever given her to eat, her body has rejected. Today I prayed that bananas would be the first of infinite foods that will make her body healthy, strong and happy. I guess we'll know soon. Then we'll try it all over again tomorrow.
