Here I am, completely undone by seven pounds of squishy baby.
I cradle Elena's son in my arms, his tiny body wrapped in a pale blue blanket, his
little fists opening and closing like he's trying to find something.
One of his fingers wraps around mine and I forget how to breathe. My chest swells, my eyes sting, and I can't stop smiling like an idiot.
God, he's perfect.
I wiggle my finger against his tiny palm, whispering a quiet hi. He coos and it hits me like
a punch to the heart.
I want one.
No, I want five.
If they all feel this soft, smell this good, make my heart ache with love, then I want five.
I never used to think of myself as a mother. Not seriously. Not beyond that pregnancy scare that had me spiraling, unsure of the future and everything in it. But now? Now I'm sitting here, in a quiet hospital room and everything feels clear.
"He's absolutely beautiful," I say, looking up.
The comment was meant for Elena, but she's out cold on the bed, snoring softly, completely knocked out from forty-eight hours of labor. A laugh slips from my lips, she would hate to know that I've heard her snore.
"She deserves the rest," Noah murmurs beside me, even as he tries to hide his chuckle. He leans over and presses a kiss to her forehead, brushing a strand of hair from her damp temple. "It was a long couple of days."
There's so much love in his eyes that it steals my breath again.
My eyes drift across the room to Zaid.
