The greatest gift on the world

There are times in the life of every person that they are unforgettable. Moments in time that we are whishing never to end. Times that happiness is so thick all around  us that we feel we can touch it physically. I felt that way the day Harry came into my life. He is not my son, it was not me who gave birth to him. He is the son of my beloved brother and the first baby that came into my family. He was tiny and wrinkled when i first saw him and he was crying like he was angry. Maybe he was. After all natural birth is hard for the baby too. And he was pink! I will never forget that pinkish colour of him. When the nurse brought him to us i was amazed then i felt scared. He was so small! Then i smiled because he was looking kinda funny and cute. In the next days i notticed that he was changing. But of course most of the time he was sleeping so it was not easy for me to deside on his changes. All i knew for sure it was the way i was feeling. A deep tenderness and affection and need to protect him and kiss him all the time. As the months were passing by he became my daily habit. I felt the need to be around him and touch him and talk to him. I was memorising every move he made every smile. The first time he was able to sit on his own i felt like he accomplished the greatest achievement and the first time i saw him sitting and clapping his hands i started crying. I dont know if it was the maternal instict in me or the fact that he was my brothers child but i realised that i loved him more than my life. His sparkling eyes his baby smell his toothless smile will be in me forever. He came into my life like a light cool air to change it for good. I am not sure i would be able to love him more if i was his physical mother. He is like a miracle to me. My miracle. Every day i watch him growing up affecting my life in so many ways. Harry makes me to want to do more. He is giving me hope and courage. I dont know if i will have my own kids in the future. Life works in mysterious ways. But i do know that Harry is the greatest gift on the world for me. And i really wish all people will have a gift like that in their lives. Because loving someone so much and giving love is the greatest feeling in the universe.
