"it isn't the size of the body the person is within but the size of the heart they love with that makes them who they are"

I never knew I could love someone so much. I never knew that a cheek on my cheek and a tiny voice in the middle of the night whispering "mommy I need you" of the could be such a blessing. How was I to know that my destiny involved something so miraculous, so grand, so precious and gentle? How was I supposed to know that I would be this blessed?

I never knew that a tiny hand slipping into mine would feel so heart warming so great. I never knew that it isn't the size of the body the person is within but the size of the heart they love with that makes them who they are. How was supposed to know I would be consumed by such a presence? How was I supposed to know that in such a small time on Earth with such a small frame, she could alter my world for the better every day?

I never knew what it felt like to love someone with everything I have. I never knew that loving someone so much would mean that I would honestly give myself for that tiny one. How was I supposed to be prepared for such a task? Does she know what she did the day she came to me, changed me, made me whole? She may not, but HE does know, that's why she is here.
