Love Thursday: Something Grand...



"If one feels the need of something grand, something infinite,
something that makes one feel aware of God,
one need not go far to find it.
I think that I see something deeper, more infinite,
more eternal than the ocean in the expression of the
eyes of a little baby when it wakes in the morning
and coos or laughs because it sees the sun shining on its cradle."
-- Vincent van Gogh

Love Thursday


Little Sister

"She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst and best, and loves you anyway. She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are smiling, even in the dark...."
(Partial Quote)

One Month

Today at 6:00 am, my baby turned one month old.

I've had one month of baby ears....
One month of baby toes....
One month of baby fingers...
One month of this sweet baby face...
And I can't get enough.
So many sweet moments. So many sweet memories.
Every day she grows and changes.
Every day I grieve the loss of the day before.

But... I look forward to the new day ahead.
The moments still to come.
The memories still to be made.

It's going to be amazing... I can feel it.
