Mother's Love

After a marathon of walking the floor a soft sigh, an exhalation of sweet baby breath, heralded the arrival of peaceful slumber. The quiet of deep night settled around the young mother as she gazed with adoration at the now blissful face.


“It’s a good thing you are so adorable.” She whispered, exhausted visible in her heavy eyelids and slumping shoulders. The gentle rise and fall of the infant’s chest and the warmth of his body in her arms brought a smile to her lips. “Yes, all the sleepless nights are worth the price of having you in my life.”
