So I have this baby, hugging me in his sleep. Is there anything better than that? I feel so loved, so needed, so incredibly necessary. This child depends on me in every way. I keep him fed. I keep him hydrated. I keep him clean, sheltered, rested, healthy, happy, safe. I may fail at a lot of things in motherhood every day, but this moment, this sleepy snuggle, reminds me of all the ways in which I succeed.
