innocence

Sam,

Your father and I are so blown away by you, by your innocence.  Last night, as we watched you, your Papa looked at my and said, "Sometimes he just seems so small and innocent that I want to cry."

He's right.  You're toddling around all over the place, but you still seem so tiny.  You're such a cheerful, happy baby.  So sweet and innocent that it's completely overwhelming.  We want so badly to protect you and to keep you safe from everything that might hurt you. I know this won't always be possible, and it breaks my heart.

For the time being, though, I'm going to cuddle with you as long as you'll let me and breathe in the sweet smell of your little body.  You're growing up so fast, little one.

My darling baby boy, you are so very loved.

Your Mama.
