My two
It’s the moments like these that make my heart stop for a moment.
The two of you cuddling in the early hours of the morning while I am having a cup of tea.
The two of you both at peace in dreamland, comforted by each other’s presence.
The two of you wanting to be nowhere else in the world.
It’s easy to forget this picture sometimes. When we are ships passing through the night, when you are working late and when we are apart.
But these are the moments that make me remember.
Remember how much you do for our family by working hard.
Remember how you get up for her when I am exhausted.
Remember how strong your love for her is.
In these moments, there is nowhere else I’d rather be either.
My cup of tea can go cold, the washing can wait, the emails can remain unopened.
I just want to see the two of you and cherish this until my heart starts beating again.
