He’s his mama and all that is implied

As I suspected the little dude has arrived and came in like the teeny rainbow after the storm. The 5th PKIT graced us earth side on Thursday October 24th in the afternoon and his entrance was one for a story for another day. But as he and I spent one of the only solo nights we will likely have I wanted to document how having him, for the past 57’ish hours has indelibly marked my life.

As I gaze on his face the first thing that comes to mind is, he looks a lot like me. The other PK’s heavily resemble the VIT. This little munchie, he’s me. He is like his dad in that he is calm and doesn't mind going with the flow. He makes his presence known when necessary but just quietly loves and let's his sweet special light shine. He is love.

Our trip together earth-side was rough. But one thing we will always have is that we chased the light and came through together. He’s the best most peaceful thing I’ve ever held. If God embodies a person, then I can say I’ve seen their face and let tears of sweet relief and thanksgiving rain over them.

My wish as our son and I navigate this new chapter of life, keep being you. Love deeply and roll with what comes. Cause at the end of the day, you’re alive and I’m alive, mission accomplished.
