...motherhood

I'm home. Alone.

Rob has taken Evy to her grandparents for a visit. I stayed home - I'm tired and am supposed to be sleeping, but instead I'm sitting here feeling like my chest is being crushed because I miss her.

This is the longest Evy & I have ever been apart. And I just realized what motherhood truly is:

Since having Evy, my heart doesn't live in my own chest. It doesn't belong to me anymore. Instead it lives inside a tiny beautiful girl.
My daughter.
Evelyn.
Evy.



Amazing. Isn't it?
