That feeling with your first baby, where you bring her home from the hospital and are terrified you're going to lose to SIDs overnight, this baby you didn't even know until a day ago... I remember that so well.

And I'm still so grateful that it didn't happen, not to me or to you. :)

I agree that the world needs more positive-thinking parents. It's the only thing that will keep us going!

There is nothing like holding your baby the first time- and the newborn smell and the soft, fragile skin. Yeah... you evoked some good memories here!

Thanks for writing. Hugs and peace~~~
