What Her Heart Embraces and Why

It was when she had finally been stripped of everything that she first experienced what “vulnerable” felt like, both physically and emotionally.

But in that initial moment of vulnerability something wonderful happened. He placed a diaper around her waist and fastened it into place. But she didn’t feel silly. She felt “little” for the first time.

Her heart began to beat as fast as the butterflies that fluttered their waltz in her tummy. Her shoulders shrunk up and she wrapped her arms around herself in an effort to find the modesty she knew so well.

But everything was different now and she no longer felt vulnerable as she felt lost, helpless and in need of a protection she couldn’t describe, yet faintly remembered having felt long ago.

He wrapped his arms around her and said: “It’s okay. Daddy is here and Daddy will keep you safe. You will always be safe and you will always be loved because you are my BabyGirl.”

And then she understood what “little” meant and what it felt like. She opened her heart and embraced it.
