i wonder...

I wonder what she's thinking...

because I know what I am.

I wonder what she'll look like with more hair?

I wonder when she'll roll over (she's just so darn chubby, but I love it!)?

I wonder when her first teeth will come in?

I wonder what baby food she'll like?

She knows only what she sees. I wish I could protect her from so many things in this world, and I know that I cannot. So, the only thing I can do is to shower her with love and kindness; teach her, even now, because she is already learning. 

She gazes at me and smiles and then I do the same. 

I wonder what it's like to live in her perfect world?

It only lasts for so long.

If only for a brief moment, I get lost in the wonder. 

Everything goes silent as though the world is standing still.

It's the powerful force that pulls at my heartstrings, that can only be a mother's love.

Be still my heart, my mind, my soul.

I wonder what she's thinking...
