today he was all smiles and happy baby faces, and in those moments time seems to stop and last forever, glowing warmth and light filling the darkest crevaces of the earth, and all the rotten, cruel, poisoned cursed things shriveled and melted, and there was only joy. flying weightless over mountains and oceans into vast unknown galaxies at the speed of thought, knowing nothing but the honest gladness that is love.

and then he stops smiling, and wiggles around and spits up a little drool, and the room comes back into focus, and you realize that only a second or two has gone by. pretty soon he'll be wanting a later curfew, but I'm just trying to enjoy those little moments while I can. nothing will ever be so soothing as a baby smile.
