We made it to one month! I had no idea that making it through the first four weeks of Francis' life would feel like a major accomplishment. But it does- my biggest accomplishment yet. We had so much help from family and friends. I've never felt more supported.
I know all mothers must feel this way, but isn't he the most beautiful baby?
I spend a lot of time staring at his sweet little nose, his ever expanding cheeks, and deep blue eyes.
That yawn! I'm in love.
Francis was baptized yesterday. Our pastor reminded Sam and me of the importance of our vocation to love each other. I am a so grateful for Sam- he is a tremendous father. The enormity of raising a new soul is a lot easier to face with him by my side.
We love you, Francis. Here's to many more wonderful months!
