Precious Moments

Sometimes in our lives God Blesses us beyond our wildest dreams. I have been so Blessed with my grandchildren Mia and Jayden.

On Sunday Jayden will turn five, and the joy that has filled my life these past five years is way beyond description. I don't know of any words in the English language that would do justice to the elation, delight, and love this child has brought into our home and into my life.
I'm ashamed to say that I did not greet the news of Jayden's impending birth with great joy. And it was with reluctance that I readied the house for a new baby. It had been twenty years since I had fed, and diapered, and cared for a newborn, and I did not relish the thought of bottles, and bassinet, and playpen, and crib, and stroller, and high chair (and all the rest of the paraphernalia that comes with caring for a baby) taking over my home again. It felt like an invasion.

Had I only known the immense love that was about to enter my life I would have gleefully tended to that task with a grateful heart and happy anticipation rather than a mere sense of obligation.


Here are just a few of the precious moments spent with this precious boy:

I am so Blessed.
God Is So Good.
