I am so full. Full of gratitude for this life I lead. Full of the sweetness of baby giggles and kisses and single-word-exchange conversations. Full of love for my sweet husband. Full of cheesecake my sweet husband encouraged me to eat in honor of mother's day. Just full. But I won't burst; he helped me with the cheesecake.
I wore shoes today I haven't worn since before Mikaelin, which got me to reminiscing. This time 7 years ago I was celebrating Mother's Day by graduating from college. This time two years ago, we were going on our babymoon. This time last year we dedicated our baby to the Lord. This time next year?
Life is good. 80-degree May days full of lilac breezes and rhubarb evenings. Community that's more like family than family. Watching the Mikaelin Channel on the video monitor while she sleeps. Crayon blue skies and minor home demolition projects. Planning for the future, full of hope. Gratitude and hope.
