They Light My World


Lucy will be 6 months old in 2 days.  I’m watching her sleep next to me right now as I write this.  Her little cleft chin, her sweet rosy cheeks.  She is so perfect.  I want to just drink up all of her and save it somewhere it will be safe.  I never want to forget loving so much or being loved so much.  The purest, most innocent love in the whole world.  And I get it every morning when she opens her eyes.  She grins so big I think my heart might explode. 

I worry when my children get older that they won’t need me.  It’s that feeling that I am the most important person in someone’s world.  And I am that to them.  They are and will always be that to me. So I catch myself daily, very consciously, drinking in the love of my girls and I am warmed and overwhelmed at how much I love being a mom.  I am so blessed it takes my breath away sometimes.  
Goodnight my sunshine.  See you in the morning love.
