Dear Matteo,
You just fell asleep, and I'm typing this on my phone because I don't want to move you from my chest just yet. Sleeping on my chest, with your ear pressed to my heart, was your favorite position when you were a baby. We couldn't put you down when you slept because you would wake up every time, so it meant letting you sleep like that for 3 hours or more until you woke up to feed. It was just two years ago, but I barely remember those moments now...how difficult it was to eat or even pee. I'm still glad I got to experience that, and even though it's so much easier to move around now, I kind of miss you being that small and delicate. Plus, it gave me the excuse to binge watch all the shows and movies that I wanted, since I stayed in bed with you all day 😂
I guess I'm feeling just a bit nostalgic because you turned two this month, and it's only a matter of time before you're too big to sleep on my chest like you did tonight. You will always be my baby boy though, even when you grow taller and bigger than me. 💙
