Everyone will tell you the magic of feeling your first baby kick and move inside your belly. But no one ever mentions how much your heart will burst when that first baby is now your oldest— and how he will dote on your newest love in the most tender way.

How he will gently rub your belly and whisper to his brother.

How he will gingerly feel for movement and gasp with excitement when the baby finally kicks.

How he’ll lay his head on on your growing bump, singing songs and planting kisses.

No one prepared me for these moments.These unexpected moments that would trigger this trickle of tears, cascading down my cheeks. T

o know your oldest loves your youngest.

To feel the bond of two brothers with one soft touch. T

o grasp the sacredness of this serene memory.

And to remember this blessing for the rest of my days.
