The state of affairs at this house is quite dandy. Mostly because this sweet little man spent the week here. Malachi brought along his mama. Being a big sister has always been pretty great, but being an auntie is absolutely - well there just aren't words. Especially because his cheeks are like God plumped them up as a present just for me. Perfect for auntie-pinching. Oh those cheeks!!!
And that hair! And his sweet sweet ever so tender disposition. Always observing and thinking and planning and finding wonder. So in love am I.
Just having her at my kitchen table lets me breathe more deeply
and everything feel more right in the world.
T plus 10 years spells trouble.
We had homemade icecream, a trip to the library,
time in the water, and much much time to just be.
I'll see him again in three weeks. And I promise, whether he is 2 or 22 or 52, he will always be my Baby Kai and I will always pinch his cheeks. Always.
