Little Miracles

Anyone that knows me knows that I believe babies are little miracles. They are a true gift from God. When you hold a baby it is an overwhelming sensation that lets you know, despite the world we know, which is driven by selfishness and sins, innocence and purity still exist. The first time a baby opens their eyes you see purity, when you hold them you feel the honest love, and when they wrap those little fingers around yours reaching out for you, you know deep in your heart how powerful that innocence is. Everyone was born this way, no one was born selfish or full of sin. Those are choices people make. That one look, that little body in your arms, those little fingers wrapped around yours, make everything in the world ok for that one second. If you don’t know what I am talking about, you are either too shallow and self absorbed to understand or you’ve never really held a new born baby. If you watch, really watch… look beyond the little human sitting there…. There is a moment in that one second where you realize each breath, each movement, each touch all came from love and in a world filled with hate and disdain there is still hope. All the children in my life…. My nephew, Annabell, and now Montana are all reminders of that…
