You are my heart in human form.

I see you, my love.

All of you.

So wonderful and beautiful.

All the pieces of you that make up one perfectly imperfect being.

My heart is filled with the light of you.

Time passes too quickly. The feeling of rocking you is still familiar. The weight of your body nestled perfectly in my arms.

My breasts are still heavy with the memory of hours spent nursing, gazing at each other as your eyelids grew heavy.

Watching you grow has been a great joy in my life and I am honored you chose me. I am humbled by the lessons you have taught me. And I am grateful for all the love between us.

You inspire me every day and I imagine you moving forward armed with your insight, empathy, and incredible sense of justice all set to the score of Star Wars.

I carried you in my body, quickly and quietly.

I will carry you within my soul forever.
