you were
born a jumble of limbs unsteady for life outside a tightly swaddled blanket
my second precious cocoon with the bright red face and cheeks so grand hardly a nose between them.
standing over you in the bath today, we, the people who made you, cringing to lift and clean your broken wing,
remembering yesterday you were perfect.
our darling olivia, our sweet baby only one year and a half,
your little body tightly swaddled in our love and worry
cocooned in the reach of our broken hearts,
you carry your cast without burden and no fewer smiles.

Boy you have been thru many incidents with her! She looks so sweet just sleeping!
What a sweetheart, and yes, my heart would have been broken too had it been my lil' boy! It's hard to see your kids suffer and hurt. (That's why I hate taking him to shots!) BTW, you are such a great photographer! Teach me!
poor little livi, i know how you feel tanner injured his leg this week and has been limping all week, it breaks your heart! She looked too cute with that little cast though!
The cast is almost off, right? My poor baby!!
