Flash Fiction Friday: Moments

That moment when they finally close their eyes to sleep-- looking like angels sent from heaven.

That moment when they first recognize their hands-- staring at them, wiggling them, learning how to bend them; they are growing so fast.

That moment when you see them smiling in their sleep-- you as a mother feel as if you have accomplished the greatest thing in the world-- making your child happy.

That moment when they stare at you, registering in their minds that you are indeed their mother/father..

Beautiful moments.
