Love. I thought I knew what it was when I had those first feelings of butterflies in my stomach for a boy that I liked in high school. No... that wasn't it at all.
Pure love - raw love - unconditional love for me - for the very first time was when I got to see my oldest for the first time. She was three hours old. Born via emergency C-section, I was put under very quickly. When I came out of recovery, they wheeled me down to the NICU to see her. She was so tiny, so fragile but I fell instantly in love. I knew then, what love was. I can't explain it, but I feel like my heart suddenly grew bigger. I could not stop looking at my daughter. She was two days old when I finally got to hold her and wow! What a feeling it was... it was like a rush of adrenaline. To be that much in love like that... it's the best feeling in the world, if you ask me.
It happened a second time when my other daughter was born. A love like this is a love like no other. This is what I hold on to. This is what I cherish most.
