Today I am thankful for small moments. This morning was Olive's baptism and it was quite special. At one point in the service Addison was sitting a couple of rows in front of us with her Uncle Chad and Aunt Mimi - and she looked back to catch my eye and we both winked at each other simultaneously. She's totally my kid. It was a nice connection. Shortly after that Olive who was sitting on my lap stood up and nuzzled her face into my neck and then looked up and just smiled at me. It was another nice connection. I am hoping to take these small moments and remember them, burn them into the back of my brain. I am thankful for moments of connection with each of my kids.
Dear Father, thank you for the opportunity this morning to stand in front of our family and commit to guiding Olive's life in your way. Thank you for moments of connection with each of my kids and I am prayerfully hoping these continue to occur. Thank you for your love, promise and hope.
Amen.
