Something happens when I nurse.  She latches on, we settle in, and I am immediately flooded with an overwhelming love.  Time and time again I am surprised my the intensity of this emotion.  Everything fades away and it is just her and me.  Moments before I was bustling- cooking, cleaning, washing, bathing, wiping... but now all is calm.  I stroke her head, and whisper, "I love you."  There is nothing like the bond of mother and child.
