Happy 5 Month Birthday, Jack!

So, I know he can't actually read my blog posts. I wrote him something a few months ago and figured I would post it here anyway. I will read it to him, for good measure.

Afternoon sunlight hits his peaceful face
seems to brighten his already curious eyes
corner of his mouth smirking into the
most fantastic grin.

I stop caring
that I feel like I've accomplished
nothing today.

Moving and babbling
one fist in his mouth
he moves to offer me the other - like he
knows how to share
at only three months.

And again
today
here
I feel God's overwhelming love 
see him move in my baby's movements
hear him speak
no -sing
in Jackson's happy chatter
feel him dance in the joy and
fulfillment that surrounds us.

His warm embrace, undeniable
ever present
never changing
reassuring
a promise
daily fulfilled.

Happy Five Months, Baby Jack! I love you!
