It is always wonderful to learn about the experiences of those in our Bliss community! Rebecca was happy to share her \u201cmasking\u201d experience with her grand-daughter, Iris Hannah. My thanks goes to Iris Hannah\u2019s parents, Caitlin and Jordan, for permitting us to enjoy seeing Iris Hannah as she newly discovered more of what her grandma looks like! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Rebecca<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A thoughtful friend gave me this see-through mask, concerned that the baby was only ever seeing half my face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

August 5th picture shows the very first time 5-month old Iris Hannah saw the lower part of my face. Not counting the first (pre-Covid) 3 weeks of her life, when she was still in an infant \u201cfog\u201d, she had only ever seen me with an obscuring mask on, hiding my mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She first enthusiastically grabbed at my mask, perhaps drawn by the pretty gingham. After I pried her fingers off, we looked at each other\u2026that\u2019s when she reared back and started looking a little uncertain. In the second picture, you can see her arm is a blur as she \u201cwind-mills\u201d them in an attempt to get to her mother (and away from me). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The meaning of the elements in the Title symbols.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Masked = combine symbol + mask (face + make-believe) + nose + mouth + adjective indicator + combine symbol. [Rebecca and I had to create a new “combine” symbol for mask to accommodate to Covid-19 masks.]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emotions = emotion (heart shape) + plural indicator<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
