These photos are a few months old...as is anything I'm posting lately. Why do I feel I need to catch up instead of just skip those months? Who knows. Anyway, it's what I'm doing.
I am so.in.love.with.this.child. I know, I know, I'm in love with every one of my babies, but this one really loves me right now, and there is nothing quite like that feeling. He laughs when I walk into a room and crawls at fast baby speed to get to me. He smiles when he catches my eye. And, right before he lays down for naps or night, he lays his head on my shoulder just for about a minute. It doesn't happen any other time of day, but it's like he knows I need that, even for a brief minute!
He's a smiler, and he brings so much joy to a room...and to our family. I've heard that his namesake (my great-grandfather I never knew) was a wonderful man full of so much love. I have a feeling this little Henry is following right in his footsteps.
He brightens our days. He makes us laugh. He reminds us to slow down.
And, he is exactly what the miracle of life is...a gift...of the very best kind.
