Brand New

I was sitting up late with Jack last night writing thank you notes, and he was, well, doing this. In fact this is what he does most of the time. I started to reflect about how my experience with Jack has started out so much differently than my experience with Phoebe did. For those of you who know the story, you know what I'm talking about. Jack is one week old in this picture. I never got to see one week old for Phoebe, or two weeks, or three weeks for that matter. I missed all of Phoebe's newness. I know three weeks is still pretty new, but it's definitely not brand new. I feel so blessed to be able to experience Jack's "brand newness."
