yesterday.
yesterday, my husband and i walked into a strange home to visit our children whom we'd never met before. i was greeted with an exuberant "hi, mommy!" and a bear hug from a tiny child. little hands cupped my face, ran their fingers through my hair and patted my arms, my shoulders, as though she thought i were unreal.
i watched my husband play with his new son who was sick, putting a silly hat on his head, making noises, to get him to laugh. i watched him scoot cars across the floor and play horsey.
these new little people in our lives already make us want to be better people. isn't it funny how people so small bring out the absolute best in us?
yesterday was a good day.
