“The practice of giving thanks...this is the way we practice the presence of God, stay present to His presence, and it is always a practice of the eyes. We don't have to change what we see. Only the way we see.”

Today I am thankful for...
her beautiful profile
the way she still fits in the kitchen sink for baths
her tiny ears
her almond eyes
her chubby little toes
her bent little pinky
her sweet baby voice calling me mama
the smell of her hair
her belly laugh
her crinkly eyed smile
my good and perfect gift....

So glad that little gift is totally loved and appreciated.
Beautiful!
Once more you have brought smiles and tears at the same time. Funny how I can see ALL my Rice grandbabies in that one little sweety pie. I remember you asking me to give Jason his first bath and I was so happy you asked me to. And to see this little cherub smiling and posing with her little hand to her chin. I love you all so much.
What a blessing you have to be SO, SO thankful for!! Thank you for sharing her with all of us. Her face just melts me. I know you can hardly stand how cute she is daily!! xoxo
