I smile in spite of the exhaustion I feel. I can't help it. Watching the way his little mouth twitches, his tiny fists wave in the air as he slowly settles down...
Never in my life would I have thought to have this moment. And now I do.
Holding my son – our son – in my arms is worth the sleepless nights.
My own eyes drift closed before I know it.
Edward's quiet, "Shh, I've got him," wakes me.
Sleepless nights...yeah don't miss those either. I do miss my baby girl though so I understand this.
