Birds, Butterflies and a Baby...

Here is the bird feeder. Here, seeds and crumbs. Sprinkle them on and see what comes. One cardinal, one chickadee, one junco, one jay. Four of my bird friends are eating today. A wee bit of heaven A wee bit of heaven drifted down from above- A handful of happiness, a heart full of love. The mystery of life, so sacred and sweet- The giver of joy so deep and complete. Precious and priceless, so lovable, too- The world's sweetest miracle, baby, is you. -- Author:Helen Steiner Rice Little bird, little bird, fly around, Up to the sky, down to the ground. Little bird, little bird, flap your wings. Open your beak and sweetly sing. Little bird, little bird, fly to your nest. Now it is time to take a rest.

Rock A Bye Baby...

From this baby announcement picture last August above to this lovely little girl miracle picture below. Being a grandparent so far is precious beyond words. Wow. This is some emotional stuff going on here. Being a grandparent. When your own child has a child it is it is a different emotional heart filled experience. Near to bursting your heart. I have always prayed for our children, of course, but now the need and urgency to ramp up the prayers is strong. Seeing your own child learn about how much deeper and bigger his heart for someone could become is a sobering and incredible thing. I realize I am not making much sense but truly, making sense of these feelings and putting into words is hard. This new little beautiful life is theirs to love and take care of and imprint the love of the good, good Father on her own little heart. What exciting and lovely times ahead no matter the heartache or problems or whatever. Lord willing she will be around long after I am gone fig
