MIL & FIL

I recently heard those abbreviations for the first time. I know, that probably illustrates how out of touch I am. Nevertheless, I am enjoying using my new words:) lol

Seriously, I dedicate this post to my amazing mother and father in law. They both have blessed me beyond measure in the 14 years I have known them. 

Most importantly, I can't stop smiling and crying tears of joy as I remember their faces when they met our baby. Even though he is still not guaranteed to be in our family forever, they have already given him a very special and inportant place in their hearts. 

They are not the only ones. I would be remiss if I didn't also mention that the baby's other grandma (my mom;) aunts, uncles and cousins also have shown love that touches our hearts immensely! 

They say that a newborn baby does not yet realize a separation between himself and his mother. That bond goes both ways. As a mother, when anyone loves my child, I feel loved. 

Thanks to an amazing family, I feel very loved.
