Nothing Sweeter

Nothing sweeter than a fuzzy head against my cheek;
milky breath in warm puffs on my neck;
a chubby fist around my finger.

Nothing sweeter than a grin, a giggle, a grunt, a coo;
full body wiggles of joy first thing in the morning;
hair that captures the perfect smell of heaven .

Nothing sweeter than rocking him to sleep,
then rocking him again. . . then giving in
and cuddling to sleep in the crook of my arm.

Nothing sweeter than my baby boy.

I whole heartedly agree! Sometimes I just can't get enough of the little ones. Mine's growing way too fast. (You look fabulous in that family picture by the way)

So sweet, Jeanine & so true! I'm just so in love with my baby...I'm starting to crave another one already! Yikes.
