Dating : A Mother’s Love

In this picture, my son is playing with water and having an absolute blast at a friend’s barbeque. It was an easy picture to take because he has a permanent smile resting on his face.

Andriel is happiness personified.

His utter joy is incredible. It is contagious, loud, obvious, in your face, and out there. He does not blend in easily, and he knows it. He is flirtatious and will sneak a cheeky grin to anyone who will so much as pass a glance at him.

As his mother, I tear up at the gift the world felt I deserved. The experience I live constantly as a mum is absolutely incomparable to anything else I could ever imagine. It’s of a higher entity in and of itself, almost god-like.

I put my son on a pedestal because he is my saving grace. He is my precious treasure. He symbolises love in its simplest and purest form.

He is love.

He is my inspiration and my motivation to love.

He has taught me to love uncontrollably, purely, and wholeheartedly. If anything, he is my teacher at the one thing called life.

You have two eyes to see with,
You have two ears to hear,
You have one mouth to feed with,
And one small nose right here.|
Your feet are down below,
Your hair is up above.
You have my arms to hold you,
And I have you to love. — Nursery Rhyme
