Welcome to our life.: August 2009

The Fall.

Tuesday night I had Ada propped up on her Boppy for a little "tummy time." I walked out of the room to get laundry and when I came back this is what I found:

Old Lady Skirt.

Ada has a really cute jean skirt. It's still a little big. Sometimes it rides up.

Reject the worldly lie that says,
That life lies always up ahead,
Let power go before control becomes a crust around your soul,
Escape the hunger to possess,
And soul-diminishing success,
This world is full of narrow lives,
I pray by grace your smile survives.

For I would wander weary miles,
Would welcome ridicule, my child,
To simply see the sunrise of your smile,
To see the light behind your eyes,
The happy thought that makes you fly,
Yes, I would wander weary miles,
To simply see the sunrise of your smile.

Now close your eyes so you can see,
Your own unfinished memories,
Now open them, for time is brief,
And you'll be blest beyond belief,
Now glance above you at the sky,
There's beauty there to blind the eye,
I ask all this then wait awhile,
To see the dawning of your smile.

"The Sunrise of your smile" Michael Card
