I sat in my living room today and surveyed the mess. I was holding my son, and he was sleeping with his head burrowed into my arm-pit and his hand was resting on my chest. I could have put him down in his crib so I could do my chores, but I loved holding him so much in that moment, that I couldn't bear to do it.
So I held him for his entire nap, and I enjoyed every minute of it. I am very aware of how short this baby time is. I already feel it flying by. Corwyn is growing and learning so fast. In ten years, I won't remember the messy living room, but I will remember the times spent cuddling my son when he was small enough to sleep in my arms.
I seriously have the greatest job in the world. There are occupational hazards however. We have Thrush. Again. Shit. (Sorry for the language Mom.)
