sweetness...

he always asks me now as he looks at my belly, "mama, where's the baby?" before he lays his head down on my chest to cuddle. and then he tells me all of the things he will teach this new little baby -
"i can teach them to roll their eyes, color, and to play with my stick..." (the stick is a little olive branch we found the other day and have had to carry with us on every walk since.) oh yes, mi amore, you will be such a wonderful big brother - so full of love.

**a little tune that makes me smile and think of you & your little olive branch**
