It's moments like these that make being a mother so worth it, even through the hard times. William had a rough night last night with sleeping, but he is still the sweetest little baby ever! And when he wakes up smiling, it melts my heart and reminds me that I don't have to be the perfect mom for my baby to love me. He is so innocent and forgiving.
Last night when I was rocking William in the rocking chair, I was feeding him a bottle and at one point, he by-passed the bottle and tried to latch onto my breast. It broke my heart as I knew there wouldn't be enough milk in there for him. I started crying as I felt like I couldn't provide for my baby when he needed and wanted me. As I started crying, William looked up at me with his loving and forgiving eyes and started to do his cute smile with the squinty eyes and cooing. Of course that just melted me! And he gave me that look again where I felt like he could look into my soul and feel my pain. Like he knew I was hurting and wanted to help. It was so tender. I love my sweet William boy!
