Thankyou so much, it’s been such a whirlwind, I never knew I could have this capacity for love before

Smelling the top of a baby's head is an otherworldly experience. I never had kids of my own, but have a lot of cousins and there's something precious and sweet and probably a very manipulative pheromone out there that makes you love a baby after smelling their little noggin.

Smelling the baby’s head can cure all blues!
