It’s so Beautiful

It was Frank Lang's birthday and mommy and daddy were going to his party separately. Daddy was there already. We were having dinner and mommy told us about her wedding video and Jaf and I wanted to watch it! So we sat on the couch, with mommy in the middle, and watched the day she got married to daddy. The video was just finishing when daddy came through the door. Mommy got up and went to the bathroom to freshen up and daddy sat down between us. The end of the wedding video is a freeze frame shot of mommy and daddy kissing and when I saw this I burst into tears. Mommy came out of the bathroom and wondered what had happened? Jaffe said, “Bailey’s crying because he’s so happy!” Well, mommy was very confused - a 4 year old boy crying tears of joy is slightly unusual! She came over and sat with me and I couldn’t catch my breath. I was bawling. She asked me if I was hurt, I shook my head, no. She asked me if I was sad. I shook my head, no. She asked me if I was crying because of the wedding video. I said through my tears, ‘Yes.’ She asked if it was because mommy and daddy were kissing and I said, ‘Yes.‘ Then I exclaimed,  ‘It’s so beautiful!’ and I started to cry even harder. I felt this deeply, it touched my heart seeing them kiss, and it made me cry. Mommy started crying too and hugged me a lot. After she left for the party I cried for about another hour, daddy later told mommy. I just couldn’t stop.
