I should be cooking dinner. Instead, I just downloaded the latest round of Gideon pics to email my mom. I finally took another picture with Gideon and grandma. We only have two others, one when he was in the hospital and his face was covered with the CPAP, and the other from Christmas when I caught her in the act of loving him. Needless to say, it was time for another. What struck me about the picture is the look of absolute adoration my mom has for my son. Wow. My mom has always been this amazing parent to me and I have always known she loves us unconditionally. She's super mom. She's who I aspire to be like in all ways. I knew she'd be an awesome grandma. I knew she'd love my child a lot just for the simple fact that he was mine. What I did not expect was the strength of her love for him. She loves him like I do. I didn't think anyone could do that save for his father, but that's a different kind of love. I am totally blown away that this tiny human could cause all this love. Neat! Anyway, here are the pictures. Notethe look of total adoration in each. Yup, she's super grandma!
Way to go. You made me cry. That was beautiful.
