Happiness Is…

 

 
Is there a way to measure the amount of pride you have for your child… Better yet, is there a way to measure the amount of pride you have for another person in general?  If there a way to show how simply in love you are with your son?  I’m not sure there is. 

I spend the majority of this blog talking about getting pooped on and how insanely crazy life is now that I’m chasing around a two year old.  But the thing is, I’m not sure how to accurately represent how much better my life is now that Jackson is here. It’s a feeling that I can’t explain, honestly I don’t think any parent can explain… It’s a feeling of complete and utter submission… Knowing that every second of the day there is someone that is so much more important than anything else in world. It’s a feeling that can’t be explained, expressed or written… It’s a feeling that can only be felt… Knowing that you are completely roped in, so mesmerized, so hypnotized and so captivated by the one person in this world that can bring you tears of either happiness or sadness.  

My entire life I’ve been giving, yet I’ve been selfish, I’ve been wrong and I’ve been right… I have so many flaws, yet I know that I have so much to give. I am seeing in you now the things I know I see in myself.  

I’m not sure who helped who grow and develop… Who saved who… But what I do know is your smile and laugh has made me the happiest person in the world.
