holding hands.

sometime in the last week, you decided you liked holding hands. i've always reached my hand back while i drive, wanting a tiny baby hand in my hand, reminding me what i live for. when you were younger, this was just a reminder that i wasn't holding you and brought tears to your eyes.

now, you light up.

and my heart warms. you reach out and grip my hand with your tiny fingers and smile with so much love. you have got to be the most amazing human being on the planet.
