last night, as daron was putting Carter to bed, he was holding him close into his chest and whispering to him "i love you" and "daddy loves you..." over and over.
i wanted to watch this scene forever. when i think about it, it did feel like time was standing still for those few moments i was peeking around the corner and spying on them.
i couldn't believe how incredibly rejuvenating these few seconds were.
the feelings of exhaustion and "my head might explode" from this cold were lifted and i was overcome with gratitude and joy for these two boys in my life.
(daron with Carter over thanksgiving)
after this experience, i understand more how people have
"so many children."
(i've probably asked daron 100 times how do people do this so many times and
how did my mom have 5 children?!)
but i have a feeling it's possible because of moments where you watch your spouse
tenderly express his love for your child when he thinks no one is watching.
i don't know maybe i'm wrong. i guess i have a lot of time to figure it out :)
HAPPY FRIDAY.
we love fridays around here.
dad comes home and then we get him all to ourselves 2 days in a row.
heaven i tell you. pure heaven.
