of course motherhood is a journey of love, but what i didn't expect was how it continually forces me to push, expand, and reveal myself in ways i couldn't imagine. each day is a new beginning along an unchartered path - but that path is lined with love, with the questions of my curious little kai, with the warmth of his generosity, with the tunes of his little songs, the silliness of his funny voices, with the wonder of how he explores his world.
little one...may you always know that your presence in our lives is a gift. that you melt my heart with the way you approach the world. may you always remember that no matter what life holds for you, if your path is lined with love, you will be able to face anything.
