The last 6 months with you, my beloved Jude, have been the happiest of my life and I canβt even remember how life was without you. Β I had no idea that a little person like you who canβt talk, who objectively doesnβt do anything exciting at all and who is a 24/7 job, would transform my life so much for the better. Β Beyond any shadow of a doubt you are the most amazing and wonderful creature who has ever touched the face of the earth! You have changed me β I have become much calmer, more patient and probably nicer, and you have helped me to figure out that a lot of the petty little things that I have filled my life with before are actually not that important. Β Now my existence has been taking over by a grinning, giggling, gurgling and cooing (and a pooping, crying and waking me up at night) baby and I never before felt so content with such a feeling of accomplishment andΒ fulfilment. (On the downside, I have become possibly the most boring person in the entire universe of new mothers, but thatβs another story) So Happy 6 Months Birthday my lovely son, I am so grateful that you came into my life! As much as I love to see you develop, pick up new skills with astonishing speed and every day open up more to the world, I feel at the same time very nostalgic about every moment with you that hasΒ irrevocablyΒ passed and that I will never get back. Here a few memories that I would like to bottle and store on an imaginary shelf, for me to take down, open and relive whenever I want in the future 1. Your first tentative smiles that were so rare and I would do anything to trigger one. (I have developed new wrinkles from having this big grin on my face all day every dayβ¦) 2. The way your face lightens up when you see me for the fist time in the morning, as if you had just set eyes on the most amazing thing in your whole little baby life 3. Your little baby giggles when I sing to you. Plus a whole lot more but don't have enough room to say it all. I love you so much my little baby Jude! Can't wait to continue watching you grow, even though it's going by super fast, I can't oat to see who you'll become π» #judealexander #halfbirthday #6months #6 #6monthsold
