Learning to breathe again after the deaths of my twins, Nicholas & Sophia, my son, Alexander, and 6 miscarriages... and finding joy on the journey with my sweet preemie twins, Bobby & Maya, and our miracle TAC singletons, Michael, Lucas, and Ana.

Nap Time
Today I had a moment of sweet wholeness. I have no other word for it. For a moment, my heart was free of cracks. Peter's mom came over and we were all tired, so she napped with Bobby and I napped holding Maya. We were cuddled together. I woke up with one of her hands caressing my face while she, in her sleep, nibbled on her other hand's knuckles. It was so sweet. I could feel her breath against my skin, her chest softly rising and falling against me. It was pure perfection. And, for that moment, I felt whole.
I think its special moments in time just like this that we live for. How beautiful and perfect.
