It’s gray outside. Small pellets of sleet are falling on the frozen mud in the yard. A very cold wind is blowing.
The news is dominated by war, murder, anger, ugliness and fear.
It is a Beautiful Day!
My right hand is typing this, while my left cradles the warm, sweet blanket wrapped bundle of my sleeping Granddaughter.
In the past few days I have received news of a new baby girl and two brand new beautiful baby boys born to people I love. I have heard news of another little one on the way.
And I am reminded that winter always ends. Political races always conclude. Wars wind down and borders shift. Old fights are ended and reconciliation is always a possibility.
Life continues. Every birth is hope renewed. Welcome, beautiful children! We love you and need you so much!
Empty Nest, Full Life

Perspective is key. It’s the little things that make a big difference. Nothing like babies to help us remember to have hope.
