C2

 not a lot to say, not alot to share.  just that sweet baby C, or C2, (as there are two "C" names in our home currently) has brought with his wee frame a large dose of joy and love.  our lives have intersected in a forever way.  we have fallen hard and are definitely getting too attached, exactly as we should.  this is a temporary stay for him, a soft place to land where many hands reach out to snuggle and feed and care for him in a beautiful way, but our connection to this sweet babe and his dear family will be forever, at the very least in our hearts.  

 

i ache that there is heart wrenching pain like this all around.  i want to fix these broken pieces.  my brokenness might not look the same, but on many levels it isn't so drastically different.  we all have cracks~ fragile parts of our hearts, our journeys, our stories.  sometimes raw, sensitive, vulnerable...i'm so thankful the love of Jesus seeped in to my worn out places.  i'm so grateful for the mercy and grace of my Father that He'd love me enough, more than enough...just as i am.  nothing more.  goodness, i'm not deserving of this lavish extravagant gift.  

(all of the big kids invest.  it's sweet...)

so, how ever many days and nights we spend with this adorable bundle, and the bigger C too as the months continue to hold uncertainty for him~ we pray their future paths hold immeasurable amounts of joy and love and warmth and security.  for now, we are smitten.  babies are sure good for the soul.
