Silence is golden...

The first two days of having Calvin home were quite the challenge! Eating every two hours and being up was tough for Sarah and my mother-in-law. I think I've had it relatively easy as they've been sleeping in the master bedroom, and I've been all around the house. I'm so grateful.

However, last night, Calvin slept for a good deal and even now this morning, he's out. All I want to do is watch him as he sleeps. Even though I've got to prepare a sermon, a lesson on textual criticism, and get things in order for several other events, all I can think about is my little boy and how tiny his hands are. Every night I get on my knees and pray for him at his crib, asking for grace for one more day to enjoy him.

For the better part of the morning, Calvin and I just stared at each other as I sang him a medley of songs ranging from "How Great Is our God" to "Great is Thy Faithfulness". It was the first real meaningful time spent between father and son, and I pray the first of many.


Well, here's one pic until I get the other ones posted...
