Appreciate the little things, really they're Big!

There are few things in life that are more precious than a sleeping baby. It's a picture of the innocence and total dependence they have on everyone around them. You love them so much because you know they need you for literally everything in their little lives.

They need a guardian, someone who will love them and is totally committed to their absolute protection and safety, ever watching for anything that could bring them potential harm. They need parents.

You gladly take on the job of protector, provider and teacher of these little ones. It comes from the deepest place in your heart, filled with complete unconditional love that knows no boundaries and has no end. Love that would literally give anything to preserve this cherished life, even the sacrifice of your own life to save theirs if needed. This without thought, without hesitation, you would just do it, because of this Love. There is nothing like it on this earth, the Love a parent has for their child.

This is the Love that God has for us, His own children. Isn't it great that He allows us as parents to experience that same love He has for us? I think it's pretty amazing.
