Breathe.

I have this one memory of lying on our gray couch holding my tummy. I was pregnant with Little A and the doctors had been concerned about her development and size. The entire third trimester was just watching and waiting. Lying there, I told her, "I just want to hold you and feel your heart beat against mine and know that you're okay."

I remembered this tonight as I was holding her,
watching her sleep in my arms,
feeling her tummy rise up and down
in small waves as she breathed in and out.
My baby is okay. 

Thank you Lord for two healthy children.
You breathe life into us.
Psalm 139:16
