Today is a hard day.
Today I learned you can practically walk. Today I learned you like to eat paper and that you can swim. Today I learned you are strong and beautiful, but I already knew that.
Today I want to hold you.
Today I want to feed and dress you. Today I want to smell your sweet baby hair. Today I want to sing to you. Today I want to comfort you. Today I hunt you down when you escape across the floor. Today I want to bathe you, and put you in your pajamas. Today I want to read you a bedtime story and tuck you in. Today I want to kiss you goodnight, and whisper, “Mommy loves you.”
Tomorrow I will want it all, all over again.
