Holding Heaven In My Arms

I think a combination of me feeling that Presley is growing up way too fast for me, and me realizing that I need to appreciate each moment with my girls given the fact that Paxten might be my last child, (but not if Lora has anything to say about it), I  had a special moment with Paxten the other morning.

I was carrying her with her head in one arm and her legs in the other arm, just staring into her big, bright eyes, and she was just singing away. I have no idea what she was singing as I could not really understand her, but that did not matter. All that mattered at that moment was that I was holding someone that I loved as much as I have ever loved anyone in the world, and nothing else mattered in my life at that moment. It truly was a perfect moment in my life that I have thought about multiple times since its occurrence two weeks ago. There is truly nothing in this world that I love so much and unconditional as I love my two daughters, and I was thankful for the moment a few weeks ago and thankful that I was aware enough at the time to appreciate it.
