Eight hours old.

480 minutes old.
And I got to hold her. And stare. And try to remember what my children felt like when they were 28,800 seconds old. Couldn't do it.
So instead, I just stared. And stared and stared.
Eight hours old. As in eight hours and one minute earlier, she was not born yet.
AMAZING.

If I only had a time machine, I'd go back in a second. But I can't.
So for a couple of the hours in the first day in her life, I got to hold this beautiful baby girl.
Safe, warm and loved. And eight hours old.
