Profile of passion?

When we had the first scan at the hospital to check on the progress of the unborn Matilda, we were struck by her profile, in particular by her lips.  I think we still have the scan somewhere.  The picture below is so like it....even now.  Both her face and her personality were apparent from even before she was born.   Always poking and kicking.....pushing against boundaries.  

Today we went rock climbing again.  We go every two weeks.  She's doing black climbs now....it's such a kick to see her leap to a hold that is a stretch for an adult....and has barely enough to grip onto....and see her shimmy up, lifting her whole body weight on her tiny little fingers.  

What's in a name eh?
