I wrote a poem for my new baby:

Elijah

In this new world, time does not exist
He sleeps, he eats, he sleeps...
His tiny fingers curl into his tiny little hands
I love him
I am in love with his every breath, his sweet baby faces, his curious eyes

He depends on only me
He needs me, but I need him
Soft new skin and milky baby breath...
I wonder what kind of things he will learn to love

Nothing matters now
Or, everything matters, but in a new way
He doesn`t care how I look, or if the house is clean
Pure, fresh innocence
We are in baby bliss

Awake and alert for a moment
I can`t look away
Kiss... kiss... kiss...
What do think about Baby?
Do you know Mommy loves you?

I want to soak in every moment
I can`t put him down
He gurgles and sighs
He is perfect
More kisses...

My body feeds him
God planned it this way
Mommy and baby, joined together
There are no words to express
Beautiful, beautiful baby

I love you...

Quote of the Day

Do you find yourself saying, “I can’t take it any longer”? Well, simply stop taking it. Let it go, release it, and stop fighting yourself. Behold the love within your heart, and start “giving it.” Ka-boom, baby!

- Sri Gawn Tu Fahr

Quote of the Day

“Often we allow ourselves to be upset by small things we should despise and forget. We lose many irreplaceable hours brooding over grievances that, in a year’s time, will be forgotten by us and by everybody. No, let us devote our life to worthwhile actions and feelings, to great thoughts, real affections and enduring undertakings.”

Andre Maurois   This goes along with my FaceBook status update yesterday:  Jenny Hansen Stradling Like I tell my kids, YOU control how you feel... no one can make you mad, you can choose how you react, so if you are mad, it's your choice to be that way. You can also choose to be happy! The sooner we can all learn this, the easier life will be. Who cares what anyone else says/thinks about us anyways? Just choose happy and don't worry about the rest.
