i walked into work three days late and was given the most unbelievable news i've ever heard. i cried. i literally started crying and had to leave the room. i couldn't contain myself all morning. i was shaking, i was fidgeting; my eyes started filling up whenever i glanced her way. she is the spitting image of him. the spitting. image. she even had the little outward dimples passed down to her. she's so individual and so much more intelligent than the rest of the kids. she's beautifully cultured and has hair like the sun and simply radiates happiness. it sounds ridiculous, but it's true.

i can't believe i get to spend the next week with his own flesh. and. blood.

today was the best day of my life, no doubt.
