16 days


i look at you, my sweet boy, and i'm in love.

i fell in love with you before i even met you. and every day since the day you were born, i fall in love with you more and more (i won't hold the fact that you keep me up in the wee hours of the morning against you. or the fact that you've peed on me more than i care to imagine).

when i see you, when i touch you, when i smell you, i am reminded of how faithful God has been to me (to us as a family) and how perfect his timing is in everything.

you, my handsome son, represent his unending love and mercy. you represent the trials and patience we endured as we lost our 2nd baby, and faithfully waited for the Lord to bring us another.

a perfect gift. a perfect miracle.

16 days you've been in this world. welcome to our family. you have a doting big brother and big sister. they love you so much. and your mommy and daddy love you too, little one.

Pras - Gibson looks so peaceful. Dad says he looks like Tyler in those pictures. Dad also said there's a trick to changing diapers on baby boys. He did this with your 4 brothers, but then again, that was ages and ages ago. Sebentar lagi ya, we get to see our latest cucu in person. ~Mom~
