Do you remember specific moments when your babies stole your heart? Bear with me but I just have to share a few of my special ones. . .Zach stole mine again yesterday. ;o) When I found out that I was pregnant with each of my babies, I was in love with them at that moment. When I heard their hearts beating for the first time, more love. First ultrasound - oh man. I wanted to hold them so badly! And then they were born. Overwhelming love but when I REALLY fell in love with each of my babies came about two days later when we came home from the hospital. With Ashley, I was sitting on my bed with her and held her out to look at her and she looked me in the eyes and smiled from ear to ear. I balled and balled (as I am beginning to do now as I remember that moment). I couldn't believe she was mine and how much I loved her! What a blessing, after so many years of wanting and waiting. I had a similar experience with Zach when he was a few days old. I kissed his neck and he smiled at me. Then, when he was two weeks old we were in Lincoln City and had just finished watching Danny and Ashley swim and I was looking at him while we were sitting by the pool and he looked at me with the most adoring eyes and gave me the biggest most beautiful smile. Another falling in love moment. Okay. Now we are to yesterday. Nothing earth shattering. Just an ordinary, lazy day but for some reason, he stole my heart again. Just watching him crawl around, drool dripping from his chin, everything going in his mouth. All the baby stuff. I have noticed there are these moments being a parent where I can be going along about my every day life and then the cuteness and wonderfulness of my children can sometimes be so overwhelming it hurts. I just had to share this and what a blessing my babies are and that my youngest one captured my heart all over again yesterday and I know this will happen many more times.
