Handsome and Me in 2003


He was just two months old but look at the size of him. I am 4'11" so you can only imagine how big and uncomfortable I was.

My heart was so full at this time. The love you feel for your child is so strong. I couldn't stop looking at him. As a new mom, I loved every day. I couldn't wait for him to wake from his naps. I wanted to show him the world. My every breath was for him. Nothing else existed and kissing his head 100 times a day was my nourishment. Food was secondary and if I weren't nursing I wouldn't have taken time to eat. Why spend time doing something for me when I existed for him?!

I can't get over how fast things move. His face is still the same but he is now dribbling a soccer ball next to me up and down the hall way while shouting to his sister how to play Wii as he passes by.

This picture, shows quiet, tranquility, and peace. My how times have changed.

  1. OMG, I know that you are a tiny person, but he is a HUGE baby. It is no wonder that you call him Handsome. I could just eat him up.
    Hope you are feeling much better... all my love and hugs.
