When I Look at You

Author’s Note: Sorry for the long silence around here! The last 10 months have been a whirlwind of anticipation and joyous transition as my husband and I have welcomed our Little Girl into the world. We are delighted and the first month of her life has been very sweet, providing the best inspiration. Please enjoy peeking into some of the resulting fruit in the coming weeks. 

When I look at you, my Little Girl, I see so much.
Life.
Hope.
Potential.
The Future.

I see your daddy’s ears, your momma’s nose, your popi’s expressions, your grandma’s eyes, your auntie’s complexion.

I see love materialized in a little girl.  Love personified in a newborn.

By the grace of God, when I look at you, I will never be angry. I will never see you through the eyes of disappointment. But I will ever see you through the eyes of love, pleasure, kindness, peace, and mercy. Just as our Father always sees us.

I love you, my Little Girl. My very favorite.

Love,
Your Momma
