Falling in love

It is really incredible how much a tiny little creature can make its way into your heart, and then continue to grow and grow, taking your heart with it all along. The love is so great it encompasses your whole body, making you heartsick and yearning to constantly connect with that beautiful little body and soul. His smile is a window to sheer dependence and unconditional love, and there is nothing sweeter than his little body sleeping on mine.

I think back to those early days with such tenderness! His little movements were so slow and tiny, though his strength was always evident. We celebrate every little milestone of development and wonder at his amazing feats. All the sleepless nights in the world are so worth it!
