With a new baby I'm also anticipating more moments of complete "aw", more moments of feeling full, more joyful tears, more loud laughs, more silliness, more snuggles from tiny hands, more cuddles from sleeping bodies, more lullabies to be sung, more love for my husband, more adventures as a family, and more overall happiness in the simplicity life has to offer.
