Today, our angel is one month old! It seems like just yesterday we were trucking through the snow to get to the hospital. What a wonderful blessing these last four weeks have been. Each day that passes, she is growing, changing, and maturing into a beautiful child of God. Her tiny hands will soon be big enough to clasp mine. Her little body will soon be wearing a tutu dancing around the living room. Her beautiful eyes will soon be able to see the wonders of this world. My hope and prayer for miss Kingsley Grace is that she grows up and follows her dreams with passion wherever they may take her. That she would come to know and love Christ and walk with Him through life. That she would treat the world/people with kindness and respect. Looking over at her sleeping in her daddy's arms, I can't help but wonder what she will look like when she grows up. What will her struggles and strengths be. Who will she fall in love with and who will break her heart. As a mother, I know I will want to protect her from this world. But I also know I will have to let her spread her wings and fly. So many emotions fill up my heart....and she is only a month old! The song, "It won't be like this for long", is stuck in my head today.
"It won’t be like this for long
One day we'll look back laughin’
At the week we brought her home
This phase is gonna fly by
So baby just hold on
‘Cause it won't be like this for long"
