Dear Layla
in the years when you look back through the photographs of your precious babyhood
I want you to know just how many hours you have spent like this
cradled in the arms of your mother, your father, your brother and your big sisters
held lovingly in the arms of the ones who love you
and the ones you love
In the absence of a cot or suitably clean place to lay you down today, as we commenced renovations on our house, this is how you spent many of your hours. In the arms of your brother and sisters.
How blessed you are to know such unconditional love.
