4/26/03 "Pure Joy"

 

I put Zachary down into the lap of a friend while I crossed her large

living room on my way to the hall. He watched me as I turned to go

and the look of concern on his pudgy face was so incredibly endearing

that it prompted me to slow way down and say as I backed away, "It's

okay, Zacky, I'll be right back," and pointing to the doorway, "I'm

just going over here for a minute..." I felt utterly connected to

him right then and I saw his tension literally melt at the love in my

voice. As his eyes started to smile I felt my body flood over with

warmth. I guess my own grin couldn't hide this because at that very

moment Zack's face transformed into a vision of joy, just the hugest

smile ever, all cheeks and gums and shiny eyes and lips;

light everywhere. And that's the image that stayed with me as I

rounded the corner into the hallway and also the one that is making

my heart glow right now as I write this.
