I Melted.

I worked at the hospital this past weekend...and had the pleasure reconnecting with my old co-workers. 

One of my co-workers, a sweet mother of many herself, a newborn foster mom, a doting grandma, had a visit from one of her (adorable) grandbabies.

Oh you guys. This baby. Nothing, in a long time, has given me quite the longing pangs as this sweet little munchkin did. 5 months old, all slobbery fingered and chubby cheeked and happy shrieks, she came right to me and nuzzled into my shoulder. I was smitten.

I offered to take her home. Actually, it was more like "begged"...but they wouldn't let me!! 

Oh that sweet girl did a number on me. Excuse me now, I need to go find my 6 year old and see if she'll play baby for me...
