Bjorn and Maternal Instincts




Please excuse the make-up free, messy haired, pajama wearing image of myself to admire how incredibly cute this moment is in my life as Auntie!

This baby is the fourth child born to my brother Byron and his wife Kjersta...and occasionally when I hold him, as well as other babies recently born to my brothers and sister, I feel those unfamiliar maternal inclinations stirr and swell up inside. Argh...I'm not even married yet. This isn't fair at all. But honestly, how could anyone not when a sweet little baby boy falls fast asleep across the belly?

I'm so toast.

We are all toast. There is nothing quite like a baby asleep in your arms, or across your chest. If I didn't need sleep, I think I might just hold my baby all night.

Don't give up Jones :)
