With all of my boys, their first steps were always steps toward me. Steps into my awaiting, eager arms. But each time, it never fails, I always feel as if those first baby steps are moving away from me, rather than towards me.

First Steps
Griffin took his first steps today. He reached for me as he stood unsteadily on his chubbly little legs and hesitantly, slowly stepped once and then twice into my arms. His face held a combination of hesitation and awe as he toddled to me. His first steps. He repeated those same steps minutes later into Chris's arms.
With all of my boys, their first steps were always steps toward me. Steps into my awaiting, eager arms. But each time, it never fails, I always feel as if those first baby steps are moving away from me, rather than towards me.
