{my sunshine ☀️}
.
The other night after I gave G a bath I wrapped him up in a towel like I always do.
But, this time he sort of laid back and just went with it and picked him up like a baby.
He giggled because I guess he even knew he was too big to be held like that now.
But, I wanted to keep him there just a little longer so I started singing, “you are my sunshine” to him. Joz and I would sing this to him to calm him down in the car at night when he first came and was so terrified of the car seat at night.
Since then it’s just what we sing to him. But, as I started to sing the other night (as he was wrapped up tight like that little baby we brought home) he started to rub my face.
I kept singing and rocking him and he kept rubbing my face. The next thing that happened was so unexpected. His lip started to quiver. And, then I noticed his eyes were tearing up as I sung. To the point where a tear rolled down his cheek.
He was like overcome with emotion and love. It was like his heart got so full it just overflowed and he understood how loved he is too. It was worth a lifetime of heartaches and court hearings all in the matter of a few seconds…
