babies =)

so tonight some friends of the family came over, they have two children, a 2 year old girl and a 4 month old boy. They are both absolutely precious; however, the little boy has absolutely captured me! He was sitting on my couch as my mother and his mother sat and talked and his big sister played with her toys. I sat there letting him grasp my finger tip..looking at his beautiful eyes, they are deep forest green and gorgeous. This baby was just sittin on his blanket tryin to fall asleep next to his mommy comforting him and he has nothing...nothing in the whole world to worry about..the only thing on his mind is what he is doing in that moment, holding on to my finger, touching his mommys hand, hearing her voice speaking softly in his ear..admiring his sister and her little running feet. How awwesoome would that be. To be a baby again, to hold so much happiness wrapped up in your precious little body while having noo idea that so many people love you soo much. As i sat there admiring his deep green eyes that will eventually change color, and his tiny hands with skin like silk, his hair patches tryin to figure out where they want to grow, his precious little nose identical to his mothers, beautiful eyelashes and soft soft skin.. i admired him. I adored him. I wanted to protect him, i wanted to make him happy, i was not going to let anything touch this little boy in any harmful way possible. He was happy, he was content, he was beautiful..he is Gods creation. He is what God made him to be right now before feeling the worlds corruption at his heels. He is what we all strive for, to be care-free and content and happy and loving all wrapped up in the cutest package anyone could ask for! God bless him..=] and God bless you !!

Small Enough by: Nichole Nordeman

Oh great God
Be small enough
To hear me now
There were times when I was crying
From the dark of Daniels den
I had asked you once or twice
If you would part the sea again
Tonight I do not need a
Fiery pillar in the sky
Just want to know youre gonna
Hold me if I start to cry

Oh great God
Be small enough to hear me now
Oh great God
Be close enough to feel you now
(Oh great God be close to me)
There have been moments when I could not face
Goliath on my own
And how could I forget we marched
Around our share of Jerichos
But I will not be setting out
A fleece for you tonight
Just wanna know that everything will be alright
Oh great god be close enough to feel me now

All praise and all the honor be
To the god of ancient mysteries
Whose every sign and wonder
Turn the pages of our history
But tonight my heart is heavy
And I cannot keep from whispering this prayer
Are you there?

And I know you could leave writing
On the wall thats just for me
Or send wisdom while Im sleeping
Like in Solomons sweet dreams
But I dont need the strength of Sampson
Or a chariot in the end
Just wanna know that you still know how many
Hairs are on my head
Oh great God (Are you small enough)
Be small enough to hear
Me now

This is such an amazing song, it constantly reminds me of Gods grace, love and power. Have a great day =]
