I Forgot....

A few months before Levi was born, I put Emma to bed at her normal 7pm bedtime, and came downstairs to relax on the couch with Felix for the rest of the evening. I clearly remember saying to him that we should enjoy these last few months because "soon, we won't be able to just sit and relax after 7pm anymore".

But I forgot how wonderful it was NOT to just sit & relax after 7pm anymore.....


I forgot what it was like to spend the evening snuggling with a little ball of mush on the couch.
I forgot how sweet the little coo's they make sound.
I forgot how much I love it when our eyes meet and they smile.
I forgot how soft their skin is, and how it takes their whole hand to hold just one little finger of mine.
And I forgot how wonderful it feels to have this little love pressed against my body in a deep, deep sleep.



....I did remember how much I loved the feeling of their head nestled in my neck, and he did that today, and I just leaned over and kissed his sweet little cheeks.
