Hi Sis,

I’m in my rocking chair with my little man sleeping on my lap. He’s in a deep sleep otherwise he would prosecute me for typing on top of his air space! He is not fond of the tic tic tic tic noises of technology. Instead he prefers eye to eye human contact when awake and the perfection of silence when asleep. It makes sense.

I just typed up the bedtime song I sing to him every night. It is nothing extravagant but it is straight from the heart. It has taken form organically over the last 3 months – the words strung together by smelling him, holding him, observing and watching him. He has elevated the meaning of love for me, his perspective is a breath of fresh air, he constantly teaches me.

Little-est Little One

We love your curious gaze,
We adore those bouncy little feet,
And those Sherlock little hands,
We love your explosive smile,
We adore the expression in your language,
How we do,
Yes we do,
We rejoice in your every little progress,
You are the sunshine in our smiles.

Chorus:
You’re our darling little angel,
You’re our little-est little one,
Oh my goodness,
How we love you,
Oh my goodness,
Yes we do,
You’re our every little thing.

You’re our angel,
You’re our gem,
You’re our temple,
You’re our heaven,
You’re our every little thing,
You’re in our every single prayer,
You’re in our every single thought,
You’re in our every single dream,
And every single little goal,

Tomorrow when the sun will shine,
The grass will grow,
And the flowers will bloom,
The trees will leaf,
And the birds will sing,
The wind will blow,
And the oceans will flow,
The seasons will change,
The minutes will pass,
And the hours will too,
All the way through,
All the way through,
We love you,
We love you,
All the way through we love you.
