wonderstruck


Today I rocked my little one,
his head tucked under my chin,
little arms wrapped around my body,
and I thought,
this motherhood gig is
quite possibly
the best thing life has to offer.

It's a special feeling like no other in the world! He looks like he's ready to be a cowboy!! He is precious. Can't wait to hold him again and see that smiley face!

I just went back to look at that sweet picture and as I was looking at it I thought "he loves his mom." And it shows in that little smile and those eyes.

Yes, yes and yes! I would be wonder struck, too!

Motherhood is the greatest gift. All things begin and end with motherhood. There's only one thing greater. Grand-motherhood :) Merrilee is right - his little face holds pure love and joy for his mum.

There are times when I am holding my little man that I would just love to freeze time for a little while and soak in as much as I possibly can.
