New Baby

At 8:09 this morning our 8th grandchild, 6th granddaughter, was born.  At 10:30 am we are still waiting to see Mommy and baby.  But, Tim, though dazed, looked good when he came out and gave us the good news.  Little Sophia Grace has a huge voice (she'll need it as the baby of the extended family) and a beautiful head of black hair.  She doesn't know right now how many people have been praying for her ever since her mommy was put on bed rest back in February, but, someday, we'll tell her the miraculous story of her birth.      

This has been a year of babies being born, but each and every one is precious to its parents and grandparents.  Just reminds me that our Heavenly Father thinks we are all precious.  He has known about each one of us since the foundations of the earth.  He watched over and supervised the "knitting"  in our mothers' wombs.  And He sings over us now.

Babies remind me that God loves each of us so much.  And I just want to praise Him for His Grace to us...
