I want to remember these moments forever. I’m currently in Keiko’s sweet nursery, sitting in her gray and white glider, rocking her to sleep as she nurses her way into dreamland. She’s got her warm, clammy hand just under my shirt, holding my belly for comfort and her little foot is tucked between my legs to toast her tiny toes. Ahhh bliss. She’s a willfully, strong minded babe but when it’s time for sleep, she surrenders to her infant desire to be held, cuddled, and loved. I never want to deny her that comfort and I want her always to think of me as that safe place. So, I’ll rock her until she’ll have it and pour all of love into her little being. My sweet Keiko Maya, mama loves you!
