A baby

One of my dearest friends had a baby on Monday.

A beautiful baby girl.  She has 3 older brothers who will guide her, play with her, love her and protect her.  Not to mention a mother and father who dreamt of her, prayed for her and are more deeply blessed because of her. What a lucky little girl.

I saw her tonight.

I held her in my arms.

So tiny ~ so precious.  An  (extra~ordinary) ordinary miracle from God.

It got me thinking.

No matter our age, gender or race, we are all miracles.  We all have a purpose. 

There is a song I know ~ it was written by David Haas and goes something like this,

We are called to act with justice.
We are called to love tenderly.
We are called to serve one another, to walk humbly with God.

We are called to be hope for the hopeless,
so all hatred and blindness will be no more!


Anyway, she is a beautiful girl. 

And my wish for you little girl and for all you stopping by to visit today ~ as sung by Rascall Flatts

I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow
And each road leads you where you want to go
And if you're faced with the choice and you have to choose
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you

My wish for you
Is that this life becomes all that you want it to
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
You never need to carry more than you can hold

I hope you never look back but you never forget
All the ones who love you and the place you left
I hope you always forgive and you never regret
And you help somebody every chance you get

May you have a blessed day!
