When I was pregnant with my baby girl, I just could not wait to see her face, to hold her in my arms, to smell her sweet smell. I couldn’t wait to dress her in dresses and sing songs and play tea party with her. I remember just sitting there, in the final days of pregnancy, anxious and full of excitement to meet her. And now she’s four. 4. And now I get to watch her pretend and see her dress up and play make believe and thank God for rainbows and unicorns. Now she’s a little girl full of wonder and excitement and overflowing with love. I am so thankful that God gave me a little girl.
And I know the parents of this sweet little baby are thankful as well. I know that they are probably looking forward to the dress up and tea parties and make-up. But more importantly, I know that right now, they are cherishing every single moment they have with her. Savoring her sweet newborn scent, counting her toes and curling her fingers around theirs, amazed at her beauty that they’ve waited forever to see.
I just couldn’t wait until Friday to show these to you
