This entry came fairly easily because when I took this photo I knew that nothing but a lot of candid journaling would do it justice.
Journaling reads:
"Watching Noah sleep is a very bittersweet feeling for me. To think soon enough he will not need me to help him get to his perfect little dream state. After nearly sixteen months of nursing him we have finally begun to wean. I nursed my other two children as well however not nearly as long. I love all my children equally but differently and there is a VERY special bond with Noah. He absolutely has opened my eyes to a whole different style of parenting. If you would have told me I would be nursing a sixteen month old when I was pregnant I would have thought you were insane! However nursing Noah has been one of the most beautiful experiences of my life. I think I am more attached to him then he is me. Whats more is his pregnancy came to us as a complete surprise. I had a very rocky start with my hormones and I was extremely depressed. It was not the same lovey, over the moon feeling as it was with my two older children. As I went on into my pregnancy I felt so much guilt. I was secretly terrified I would not love him the same as his older siblings. Even after giving birth I just didn't feel the same elation. But nursing, oh nursing Noah has really really bonded us thicker then glue! When he is cuddled up to me at night and I can feel his breathing softly and peacefully, I cant help but thank god for our little surprise. He is just what I never knew I always wanted!!
