i loved last night. we all went into bed early. it was bitter cold outside and the rest of our house is chilly so we piled up in the bedroom. joe brought the baby into bed with us. she was wide awake and full of smiles and giggles and baby noises. as we settled in, she let me know it was time for her feeding by following her instincts and bringing her little mouth to anything thats near her face. but she does this with such automation that it darn precious..shes on task and its easy and natural for her. we piled pillows up against the wall that i leaned back on and held my baby as she ate and fell asleep with joe right there next to us. these sweet nights and moments bring with them a complexity that resolves in a simplicity thats perfect.

i mentioned michelle. think of her. i have a candle lit for her. shes a good person and has a baby. send wishes of recovery to them. we all need love.
