a thousand words

I love the way an image can say so much where words might come short.

This picture speaks volumes to me about: love, closeness, fierce neediness, sleeplessness, beauty, rewarding ability to be everything to a new being, long feedings, mommy-baby world, haze, memories, uniqueness, love. Love. Love. This picture (among over 100 gorgeous ones from this newborn session) speaks to me the most about those first few weeks of new motherhood.
