From their tiny little feet which fit into the palm of your hand to their cute button noses and their soft heads and tender bodies babies are the most mesmerizing creations. Not only are babies super adorable in every aspect but everything about them is so pure and innocent. From the minute they take their first breath and open their eyes for the very first time everything becomes so new and fascinating.
When you hold a baby it is very therapeutic. To just have them lay with you as you feel their heartbeat and their breathing and the adorable little noises they make while sleeping, and if you're lucky enough you'll catch them shoot a smile in their sleep while they dream about beautiful things. Even just looking into an infant's eyes is definitely a type of therapy on its own; staring into their eyes while they look at you like you are the most interesting thing in the world is like you are staring into their soul while learning so much about them and falling in love without a single word being said. Being able to tell so much about an infant's emotions at the time by their facial expressions is the best. They do not hide their emotions, they just express how they feel. If they have a problem you will know, trust me. Even just having their two little fingers wrapped around yours as they turn purple because their grasp is so tight like they never want to let go and lose the love and care you have for them.
The smallest things make them so happy; it could be a stupid dance or a silly looking face and, to them, you just became superman/superwoman because of how hard you made them belly-laugh. They take nothing for granted. When you attempt to make them laugh and their mouth is open and their giggle is delayed by them thinking through whether they felt that it was funny or scary. So many thoughts and new emotions fill up their mind. From the minute they're born, they are changing day-by-day. It could be the smallest change that not even their mother would notice, but they grow and develop in the blink of an eye. Watching an infant grow and build their own personality is definitely the most compelling feeling I have ever felt. They take in so much in one day. Watching them slowly build their own personality is captivating and it happens so quickly.
Even the smell of a newborn baby is relaxing enough on its own. They should make a newborn scented candle, because the smell of a newborn baby makes me the happiest person alive it is almost indescribable. I cannot imagine the feeling of being a mother and I cannot wait to experience that love and the bond a mother builds with their child. Watching an infant's face light up when their mother or father walks into the room is so adorable, understanding that their mother and father are their entire world.
Needless to say, every little aspect about a baby is intriguing, and they are precious little gems that need the best tender love and care to grow into something even more beautiful. From their wobbly penguin-like walks to their army crawls, messy eating, stinky diapers, boogers everywhere on their face, and loud piercing cries, babies are exquisite. As I like to say, "holding a baby a day keeps sadness and stress away." Babies have the ability to instantly put a smile one someone's face no matter the type of day they are struggling through and to me that's more than amazing, it's beyond what words can describe.
