Nothing better than this.

Parker --


While you are sleeping, I should be doing things around the house or finishing up a transcript, but I am just going to hold you while you sleep.  I'm listening to you breathe as I stare at your adorable little arms and legs wrapped around my tummy.  Even though you are getting bigger, you are still my tiny baby.  This is the best feeling in the world, and it trumps anything else I could be doing right now.  So if the laundry doesn't get done today or I don't get the house picked up, it is okay by me because I won't get this day back and I won't always get to hold you like this while you sleep.  I might try, but I'm sure you won't always let me.


I love you, my sweet boy.


Love, Mommy
