That's what having a baby feels like. It feels like your heart is exploding all the time. Every single time my daughter looks at me and smiles my heart explodes. It's incredible. Actually, there really are no words for this feeling. And when I see her face and see her excitement at the world around her it reminds me to drop my hard edges, lose my jaded perspective and see the world through her eyes a little more.
Five months in and I'm already very aware she is more my teacher than I am hers. Have a feeling that's not going to change anytime soon.
