Thank you, Lord Jesus, for all these beautiful days with Bunny together. For our sweet mornings when I turn off her fans and sing The Good Morning to You song and she’s so happy to be alive. For playing on the floor together and looking at books. For her little laughs when I blow kisses at her. How excited she gets when I take her clothes off her bath time. How she smiles when she sees Daddy. How she kicks and wiggles and bats at her little friends when she’s in her bouncer seat. How serious she is and curious when seeing new people and being in new environments. How much she loves crunchy paper and toys that make noise. Her beautiful round blossom peach face and beautiful blue eyes and beautiful smile and happy happy grin. Her tiny hands and tiny toes and her big fat belly and chubby thighs and arms.
I love her so much, Lord. She is the best gift that you’ve ever given me in my entire life, and I can’t imagine parting from her or being away from her. I love just watching her play and live life and enjoy being alive. I love seeing her joy and delight when she’s playing.
Thank you for loving me so much that you gave me her.
All of the overnight snuggles in nursing and feeding, all the time in the rocking chair, or holding her like a football to help her calm down to sleep. All of the changing of diapers, and triple poops, and silly songs, and changing her clothes again and again and again. All of it is a grace and a joy and a sanctification. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you that I can work from home and spend time with her every day.
