It's like this
You cover your eyes with tiny fists
And make soft baby sounds
Your big sister looks at you
Trying to figure out where you came from
And why you're here
"Baby," she says
A baby herself
I pass you to Mommy
Who cuddles you on her left
As your sister climbs up on her other side
Daddy picks up his camera
"There are my girls."
God's humor
God's blessing
His family
What are you thankful for today?
xoxo,
Suzanne
