First Word!

I left for work early this morning before Bubs was awake. I guess she missed me! Listen closely at the beginning!


This is when I came home:

Here's a really sweet poem by Kahlil Gibran, thought you might like it! Maybe Sam will read this to you tomorrow with her newfound verbal aptitude.

On Children

Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.

You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,
which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them,
but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

You are the bows from which your children
as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite,
and He bends you with His might
that His arrows may go swift and far.
Let our bending in the archer's hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrow that flies,
so He loves also the bow that is stable.

While speaking with one of my former daughters, she doubted the "first word" claims so obvious to the unbiased viewer. My polite reply to her Thomasonian proclamation was, verbatim erratum, "But we are talking about MY granddaughter"

Her head is exactly like Megan's baby head! And, of course, she's looking for her mother!
