The kind of love that rewires your entire being

 My first baby taught me that there is no love greater than a mother and her child.

It was all-consuming.
The kind of love that rewires your entire being and makes the world feel different forever.

My second baby taught me that love doesn’t divide.
It multiplies.
That a heart doesn’t reach capacity the way we fear it might.
It stretches.
It makes room.
It grows in ways you couldn’t imagine until you’re living it.

And somehow, I didn’t lose anything.
I gained a deeper, fuller version of love than I ever knew was possible.
