hands

these hands are very special to me.
from as far back as i can remember, these hands have comforted me.
these hands have held me, rocked me, and wiped away my tears.
i can't tell you the overwhelming joy i feel as i see these same hands - these special hands - hold MY baby.




they comfort her,



rock her to sleep,




and give her the same comfort they have given me many, many times before.



it's moments like this that make me realize just how blessed i truly am.
