A baby is born with a need to be loved -- and never outgrows it.
~Frank A. Clark
And that's the way it is - we never outgrow the need to be loved. Not at 12, not at 34, not at 98...
"For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
your eyes saw my unformed body." (from Psalm 139, NIV)
I always seem to call newborns 'tiny miracles'. When you look at every detail, at the ways every part of them is so delicate, intricate and perfect you can not but be in awe at how amazing they are. Rueben has probably some of the cutest lips I've seen so far a newborn sport and such handsome features. And even more than for other babies, his life and his being today are a gift and a miracle.
Welcome to the world little Rueben! :)
She is beautiful beyond words and such a precious tiny thing!
Her mommy made the big yellow flower band for her - Doesn't that fit her perfectly?
