You thought I was going to mention crying, didn't you??! Well. For once I have something else in mind.
It happened again. For the 5th time in 10 years. Not only has my entire life and schedule been totally turned upside down and inside out, my heart has been altered too. Rearranged. Never to be the same again. All because of lil Miss Cassie Jo. Babies are just stink'in good at doing that.
Baby Dearest- you know how to:
-turn a harsh voice into a sweet, soft whisper
-turn hopeless cynicism into hopeful wonder
-make rough hands use the most gentle, tender touches
-turn scowls that have dug deep furrows in an old man's face back into a smile
-slow down even the most task oriented people in the world so that they too begin to enjoy the smallest everyday pleasures
-rearrange priorities that have slowly been misplaced throughout the passing years
-bring joy to the world even in the midst of deep sorrow
-turn the hardest of hearts all soft and squishy again.
Cassie Jo,
I'm thankful that Jesus is using you in such a gentle way
to grow me into His fullness.
The world is a better place because of you!!!
I love this, and I love the pictures of your little cupcake!! Maybe I can squish her soon!
