Week 20

You smile and turn away.
You giggle and laugh.
You coo and babble.
You teach me how to express myself.

You track with your eyes.
You put things in your mouth.
You feel with your hands.
You teach me how to explore the world.

You hold and throw your toys.
You jump up and down.
You sit up and try to crawl.
You teach me how to enjoy every moment.

You hold me close.
You grab my finger.
You fall asleep in my arms.
You teach me how to feel safe.

You look at me and gaze into my eyes.
You holler for me when I’m not there.
You know I will always protect you.
You teach me how to love.

Dearest Baby.
You are my greatest teacher.
I love you so much.
