This {KIND} of Love

I've been a wee bit obsessed with {this} song lately. I guess you could say that it's singing to my soul. When I first broke the news about this pregnancy to a friend of mine, she said to me, "you know...this may be just God's little gift to you". Ever since those words, I've tried to make it my {personal} mission to look harder...and longer...and faster for God's little gifts - especially the unexpected ones that are seemingly wrapped in blue and pink paper with a lil note that says "Do not open for 9 months". Isn't it funny that it sometimes takes an 'outsider' to point 'in'? Isn't it funny that simple words and simple reminders can ease a scared heart in an instant?



Don't get me wrong, though. I'm just a human- just a girl. I'm still feeling {uneasy} from time to time about the carseat situation - and going to the grocery store with (3) little ones still seems impossible - have I mentioned that we sold our infant carseat and stroller in the garage sale? - these are just a few of the little bumps in the road that run fast through my mind...and then I remember to stop.

God is so in control here. And his fingerprints are alllll over this lil miracle (just as they've always been...).


And so, when I listen to this song by Sister Hazel, I let myself be in LOVE with the creator of you...and me...and my sweet little tiny beating heart blessings. Every last one.




And speaking of blessings...(because what's a post without a pic of these handsome little men???) Talk about some sweet blessings! ;)
