I thought I knew what love was and I thought I knew what beauty looked like. I honestly thought I knew what it felt like to care for someone as deeply as I possibly could. I felt like I had a pretty good idea of what happiness was and how to achieve it but, all of that was the day before I looked into her eyes. Now I know what it feels like to love someone so much that it hurts in places I didn’t even know could hurt! Now I know what it feels like to look at my husband and not only love him more, but admire him on a whole new level. Now I can somewhat grasp the concept of how much God loves me as His child, and it’s overwhelming. WOW! What I thought I knew the day before this moment seems so shallow now. I’m her mother, and yet she’s the one teaching me.
