Baby Shower


Yesterday I hosted a baby shower for two sisters who are both expecting their first babies this summer. I've known these girls since before they were born. They fill a big corner of my heart.

The party was wonderful. The walls seemed to stretch as my house filled with the laughter of old friends who had been apart for too long. I wanted to say a prayer to bless these girls and their babies. As I started to pray my heart filled to overflowing with memories and tears started to fall. It's funny how tears can mark our moments of great joy. Love is a funny thing.

God bless you Debbie and Sarah. May these sweet babies fill your lives with a joy that fills your lives with love.
A happy mom with her four daughters and one granddaughter.

I feel like this when I see things like this - must be our age group - a sort of blessing on the heads of those with so much ahead of them
