  • 4 months...

    Boaz hit the 4 month mark several days ago. I know. I know. Who cares right? Well, I do. This is absolutely for me in every selfish way. Life with little ones can get so busy! It's a treat to stop, reflect, be thankful, and simply cherish what I've been given today in a healthy happy baby boy.

    Even though he's number 4, I'm just as amazed how fast it is going. I wish I could slow down time, or make it stop at times altogether. That's when we nurse a little longer. I don't hurry to lay him down in his basket long after he's asleep. We linger. I carry him around during the day as long as I can stand for it. And I love it!

    This baby is such a gift here. He is completely and utterly adored from sun up until sun down. It's touching as a mother to see I'm not the only one who thinks the world of him.

    I say this of each baby (as if I'm really stating anything new!) but God really knew what He was doing when he made our Boaz!

    What's not to love ~ curled toes and a couple chins! Nearly 20 pounds of love I get to hug every day.
