My life feels so small sometimes.
Everyday is about arranging the minutiae of other people's lives. Sometimes I feel like I'm drowning in the ordinary.
I am left wanting.
Right now I'm laying here with Quinn's little body; sweaty and plastered against me. It's dusk. weirdly bright light is filtering in through my open windows and I hear millions of crickets chirping. There's a breeze but it's strangely still. I look down and catch him in the moment before sleep takes him and he murmurs, "Mama."
Somehow in this moment, my small life feels pretty infinite.
