Satisfied By Love...Day 22

She sat there this morning in her space-saving high chair at the stained and scratched wood table.

A bowl of yogurt and applesauce, some oatmeal with milk, and a few crumbs of egg bake.

And her baby.



This little one loves to carry a little one with her.

She raises the spoon to the baby's rosy lips so she can have a bite of warm oats.

She rocks her back and forth and says, "I love it."

With a wet cloth she wipes away the leftovers from the baby's mouth.

And I am satisfied.  Because I think that God's love in me is showing her how to love.

Thank You, Lord.  May I continue to lead her as I follow you.

  1. Emily, such a sweet, sweet post. It truly is an honor to be entrusted the care of the Lord's little ones (though I sometimes forget...sigh). His mercies are new every morning, the amazing grace of our Heavenly Father. Thank you for your visit. Praying you have a blessed week :)

  2. oh so sweet- I have only little boys- they don't carry dolls, but one of them has a special bear who is "part of the family" the day he outgrows Teddy will be a sad day for mommy :)
