One Week

I get why Hallmark cards are so popular. I get why people believe in God and Angels.
It is difficult to say how this feels. It feels like everything. But to be specific, kt and I saw the water rush out of her and rush out of the beach. It was sucked back and back and up into a mother of a wave. We knew it was coming and so we ran to the highest possible ground and strapped ourselves fast to the nearest tree, lest we were thrown asunder upon impact. It was a little overwhelming, shall we say, when it came. It came fast and big and I drowned twenty times and kept living anyway. And we were both very brave but we were thrown asunder. as I lost my mind a bit through sleep deprivation and excitement. But I found it again, under the tree where i left it.

And you know those Shepherds? The ones who saw the Angels singing in the sky? The ones who were in such awe and amazement that they fell down and cried in the middle of the paddock? Well, I am those Shepherds and my partner kt180 is the Angels from on high. That is how amazing she was giving birth to our boy and how amazing she has been every day and night since then.

i am going to start writing for hallmark for some extra cash.
