Love In A Bassinet

We stand together in the doorway
Looking at your sleeping form
We have never been as happy
As we were when you were born.

You represent our love for each other
And our lives will never be the same
For the days are so much sweeter now
Since our little blessing came!

You remind us of the love
That the Father has for us too
For only a God who loves us
Would send a gift like you.

So we pinch each other
Lest we be dreaming still
And to make sure that it is true
But even our most delightful dreams
Weren't half as wonderful as you!

We finally leave the doorway
But glance back to watch you sleep
And we ask our Heavenly Father
Watch over our little one to keep.

I remember pondering over my little ones like that when they were babies. They are so precious.
