Perhaps it's the promise these sweet babies hold...or their complete dependence on us to meet their every need...or maybe it's that intoxicating baby smell...whatever it is, it's amazing.
Today I got to meet twin babies Adah and Paxton, and big sister Quinn. While Mama was getting a new computer set up, I gladly held three-month-old Paxton. He gazed around the room with wide eyes. Then his eyes got heavy, and he finally snoozed in my arms. It felt so natural holding him, lulling him to sleep. I felt so at peace, so joyful. It's that baby magic, I'm sure!
That sense of peace that came over me was so refreshing. It was almost as if the universe was telling me that it's okay to enjoy these babies...and that someday I will once again have babies of my own to hold and care for. Whenever that day comes, I will appreciate every moment. In the meantime, I will enjoy and appreciate all of these beautiful new babies that my friends are bringing into the world (consider this your warning!) 😁
