I can't believe you are mine

Stephen,

You've had a hard time sleeping the past two nights. After we rock you and put you to sleep you wake back up crying. We let you cry for just a little bit to see if you will fall back asleep, but you don't. Last night and tonight, your daddy has held you for an hour or so until you fall asleep. Tonight, you woke up at 12:15. Exhausted, I come upstairs and pick you up. You immediately fell asleep in my arms. I rock you and as you fall into a deep sleep, this peaceful smile comes across your face. That smile makes heart melt. Even though I want to sleep so badly, I just can't seem to put you back into your crib. I want to rock you forever. I finally get up and as I go to put you in your crib I think to myself, "I can't believe you are mine.". You are so perfect and I just can't believe that you are mine! We love you so much precious boy!

Love,
Mommy
