A is for Apple of my eye.
Wikipedia defines this phrase as "Something, but usually someone, that one cherishes above all others" (ref).
Meet the apple of my eye.Christian Wyatt Rucklos. This type of love is a love I have never felt before. Filled with admiration, proudness, fear, uncertainty, hope and protection. I was charged with the responsibility of caring for this tiny human. He depends on me for everything. He looks up at me when we are snuggling, feels safe and closes his eyes again....total trust. It makes my heart hurt to think of him ever hurting, when he is in pain, I am in pain. It is overwhelming to think I am forever bound to this tiny life, that something is everlasting. Regardless of what the future holds he has a part of my heart for the rest of my life.
I have loved in my life. I have felt many different versions of love and they all scared me and felt fleeting. But the love I feel for my son feels like its a feeling that has been there forever, it feels familiar, like it belongs. I am discovering more and more about who he is and his little personality. But that base is there, I cherish him, he is the Apple of my eye.
