Just when you feel that you haven’t room to hold anyone else in your heart along comes a person to prove you wrong.
He sleeps trustingly in the crook of your elbow, his entire hand can just encompass your ring finger, you discover that you could happily spend the whole day watching him breathe.

You then suddenly realise that you have shockingly underutilized your heart and that, like your brain, there is another 90% of capacity there waiting to be captured.

You have a grandchild.

    Such a beautiful child and such a wonderfully expressed sentiment. Not a word could be added or subtracted. I can feel you glow from here Martin.
