There is something to be said about cuddling a brand new baby...the warmth they give off is so satisfying.
Every once in awhile I catch myself just gazing at my little son's hands and tracing his wee little knuckle wrinkles. Have you ever thought of just how perfect each little part is on a baby? They are exactly as they should be, just like us only in minature...sigh...
I love to hold him close just after his bath and take in his sweet scent. His hair is so soft and his skin so smooth. Can you believe that our skin was ever that perfect? It is a perfection that only a baby can have.
I realize that just a few years ago, my dear sweet daughters were that small and soft. Now they are big, beautiful little women...growing up so fast. I don't want to miss it or make a mistake!
Thank you Lord for making little babies and children for us to cherish. Thank you Lord especially for mine. Remember to hug your little ones today and to thank God for them...they are a precious gift. |
