::newness::


you have no idea what a tree is
or what blue looks like
you have yet to learn to tie your shoes, play with toy cars or sing your ABC's.
but with your life only just begun, i hope for you joy and blessings and laughter and many hours of reading good books
i pray for you wisdom and strength and responsibility and honor
mostly i pray for you a walk with the creator of this world who wants nothing more
than to walk hand in hand
with you
and carry
you through your scary moments and your jubilee.
You are loved by so many, now and always.
My precious new nephew...
Owen
