That Which We Have...




 When I'm holding this 6-day old lad I wish for nothing more:)

Often, though glad with what we have
We might still pause to wish a bit
And then forget that which we have
And thus neglect to cherish it

Time’s hand fills both cradle and grave
Now is the slave to memory
Lord, remind us that which we have
Will soon fade to what used to be

  4. I always feel that the best baby in the world is the one I am holding in my arms at the moment. Looking forward to many many more photos of your little guy.
