Falling in Love

I remember when Daniel and I were dating and everything he did was amazing. I remember the first thing that I loved about him was his smile. I also loved his imperfections... his crooked nose (from being broke on 2 different occasions) is still one of my favorite parts about his physical characteristics. I loved that he made me have butterflies in my stomach everytime he touched me. I would lose sleep just thinking about him. I was pretty sure there was nothing about this guy that I didn't love. Of course that love has changed, and I could name at least 10 things off the top of my head that I don't LOVE about Daniel, but I still love him. I will always remember those things that I have always loved about him... just ask him... he can often get out of trouble just by smiling his childish grin at me.

I am falling in love again. I love a little guy who gives me butterflies everytime I feel his little kicks. I have lost numerous hours of sleep just thinking and dreaming about him ( well, maybe the need to pee every few hours contributes too). At this point, I can't imagine a time when he will be unloveable to me. I know in my head that in the years ahead I will be dealing with tantrums, messes, and just childish behavior... as i think of these things now though, I can only smile. I know my love for him will change and grow, and in the midst of these future hardships I will not be smiling, but for now I am enjoying these first stages of love all over again.

I love you, Ransom. I am so excited to meet you face to face. But for now keep growing and getting stronger. If you get bored in there, then go ahead and start working on that grin that your dad has mastered. No one will be able to resist it.
