Still so in love...

Sometimes you just have to write things down after they happen. I'm so forgetful these days and wish that I would do this more often. Last night, Trevor (who has been sleeping 8 to 10 hours a night) woke up at 2:00 a.m. I heard the cries on the baby monitor and I started to stir a little when all of a sudden Austin (who is usually dead to the world once he goes to bed) jumped up and exclaimed that he would get the baby and feed him. With barely enough time to register what was happening, I put my head back down and went back to sleep. This afternoon we met for lunch, which we do every day because I can't go a whole 8 hours without seeing Trevor. While we were eating Austin told me that before he went to bed last night he read an article about a 1 month old baby that was shaken to death. My eyes got a little misty, as they often do when I hear these kinds of stories, and I told Austin how sad that made me. He told me that when he heard Trevor crying he wanted to be the one to feed and comfort him because the story had made him so sad and he loves him so much. I thought that was so sweet and completely understood the sentiment. Little Trevor gets hugged and kissed a million times a day and it is never enough. We love him so much!!! Austin told me he wants 3 more just like him. It really puts things in perspective when you read stories like that. We have so much love to give and want to give it to more children. I really hope we get blessed with more. I am so grateful to have such a loving and attentive man be the father of my child. I'm so lucky and I know I need to keep these little gestures in mind when I get mad over stupid things. It's this kind of love and security that really matters.
