Dear McCord,

Tonight I wrapped my arms around you,
and we said your prayers. 
You, at 6 1/2 months,
are grabbing everything in sight -
my hair, mouth, and cheek. 
But tonight,
you wrapped your hand around my finger,
pulled it in close to your face, 
and held it until you fell asleep. 
And there we sat, in the nursery -
me holding you holding me,
and at that moment,
my heart grew bigger.
