Nap time
My baby cousin, Laila. They say that having a child is like allowing your heart to walk around outside of your body i.e. living completely and extra vulnerable to hurt. But I think that’s true about loving any child, not just one that you’ve borne yourself.
I’m not sure if its my slowly advancing age or something else but, Laila’s birth has given me that exposed feeling more keenly than I’ve ever experienced previously. I like to think that my Uncle, who’s death left a hole in our family, sent her to us so we can heal. ❤
