My Family.

[Brittni Baxter]

I always secretly wonder, how did this much amazing-ness just fall right into my lap?
He takes all the crazy that lives in my brain and tells it to go live somewhere else. He
copes with my flaws far better than any other human possibly could, I’m convinced.
We're awfully flawed, and I'm awfully okay with that. Sometimes it’s like we’re in a really
old silent movie. No words, just glances and small moves that speak volumes. I don’t
always need words. Words can deceive you, they can present false reality. You know
what I need? I need the look you give me when our eyes haven’t met for over 5 minutes,
that “Hey, you” look that you have always given me. This boy is my partner, my best
friend, my lover, my ex, the father of my child, the man I'm going to dust off the dirt of this
town from the soles of my feet with, my husband. I'm so happy to have the same last
name as you. We're gonna run away together, with this perfect little monster that we know.
The three of us are gonna get out of here. Which brings us to him...

This is my son, the love of my life, my muse, my reason to get out of bed, the laughter on the tip of my tongue, my pride, and anything else you can possibly imagine. He is seriously the coolest person I've ever met. He just has this charisma about him that is unmatched to any other human I've encountered. He's particularly excellent. He blows my mind with every single tiny thing he does, and that's how it should be. I'll never be able to thank him enough for the amount of positivity he's brought into my life.

I love our far from perfect family that, to me, is absolutely the most perfect thing I've ever known.
