This past weekend still resonates through my body as we attended another beautifully orchestrated wedding between two souls who deeply care for each other. Truth be told, I don’t know the couple that well, but their warmth was not only contagious, but seeing their joyful faces at each event spoke way more than their words.
Of course, the star of the weekend for us was Zyan. It still amazes us how easy going he is with others, and not rattled by seeing so many different people at various events. And he troops along with us to parties, happy to be just be present. Watching him interact with others, eliciting smiles and laughter from them, makes my heart warm. But the best part is that he saves his widest smiles for the ones he recognizes. His Mama of course gets some of the largest as if mirroring her heart and how it feels for him. It is some type of special to watch them play.
And then of course, just seeing how he is with each that he knows is a special treat. He makes each feel special, and seen. An attribute that I get to learn. It is also a pleasure to watch him take it all in. From the ceilings to the lights to just life passing by. Each moment something to savor, something to see, something to experience. Its amazing to see someone be so present, a mentor in his own way, already teaching me so much. I hope I can do the same for him.
I look forward to his growth, and my own.
