Crazy Beautiful


There is a song with these two words in it, "crazy beautiful". I really feel that is my life right now. Crazy busy, but filled with undeniable beauty. Being a parent has brought feelings that I have never experienced before, and feelings that I really think one wouldn't ever relate to unless they were a parent. A person may feel these things to some degree, but never with the intensity that parenthood brings.

Never have I loved a person so much. This crazy, bonding, protective, proud, worrisome love. I have never been so proud when a sound was made or a laugh produced or a step taken on wobbly legs. Never have I been so frantic when an ear won't heal, or a head smacks furniture, or a high fever won't break. Never have I been so excited for a wet sloppy kiss or a cuddle or a high five. Never have I been so content with hanging out as a family or cuddling on a minature couch just the three of us.

I am so blessed to be living this crazy beautiful life that God has given me.
