For the Love of the Baby

It all started when we began telling Lyla that she was having a baby sister. We would let her kiss Adah's sonogram pictures and she would point to them all the time and call out, "Baby! Baby!" And suddenly as my belly has been growing, (not that Lyla has noticed this, right? ha!!) she loves to give my belly kisses and rubs because she thinks she's being sweet to the baby. However, lately she's been carrying around her babydoll that Gigi and Pop got her 2 Christmas' ago. She loves to move it all around, feed it, and give it kisses (of course!).


Then, one day, we got the bright idea to show Lyla videos of herself when she was a baby. Now, everytime she takes one glance at the computer she says, "Baby!!." Little does this little angel know that the baby in the videos is really her. She's absolutely fascinated by "the baby" and it's just about the only time during the day that Lyla really stays still for minutes at a time.


All for the love of the baby (she'll always be my little baby girl).

I work for a King.

I work for a King. He has put me in charge of His home. When He comes to see how I have managed His possessions and His children, I do not want to be found wanting. I want to do my best. Everything I have is on loan from Him. I have room and board and a job to do, but it is all for Him.
Therefore I want to dress my best, and do my best in all my work. I also want to be creative, for this is a sincere attempt to glorify Him and His beautiful creation. How I manage my home is a form of worship to Him.
