two down

every day you surprise me with your development
your personality
what you like, and do not
your smile
your voice
your focus
your gigantic intense eyes

although your independance is small and you are a form of marsupial - one that would much rather hang off of mama then be alone i would not trade your attachment for anything. as it is my new comfort. 

and you are happy. 

and so am i.

it made me think of you. how you have changed my life.
we are at the 8 week mark, we are almost at a whole trimester out in the world as oppose to within me.
meloncholy, a tiny bit. but forever grateful.
for your brothers who are infactuated with you
your father who melts with your smile
for how we are seamlessly working, living, breathing
