Meet my new baby nephew, Jesse, named for my dad’s dad, his great-grandfather… Jesse Beene.

I’ve only known him six weeks, but we’re in love with each other. I know this because he stops crying when *I* hold him. Its a rare and special bond we have.

My sister texts me a picture of my baby daily, and this is one of the latest.

(Sigh).

Its been WAY too many hours since I saw him last.
