You know, when I was going through all of my infertility treatments and I dreamed to one day have a baby of my own, I thought about the little stuff. I wanted to wander around my house and find small things that belonged to another little human. I dreamt of the casual stuff. And sometimes, when I am sitting here alone on a Thursday evening, I notice the small stuff. And it is enough to make me smile. And I glance down at my video monitor of my child, still chatting at 9:31pm at night, and I smile. Not upset, mind you, just peacefully chatting himself to sleep. Like a little angel. And then I glance over from where I am sitting and I see one of those casual signs. One of those things that just makes you smile. And tonight, it is enough.
