My family has a storage unit in Middletown. Our goal is to take our belongings with us to Hungary as space in the luggage allows. On one of our visits to the unit, I came upon some baby articles from my children's baby days. The first article I came across was the little pink Easter dress Heidi wore on her first Easter. She was born on Good Friday in 2007. I had her hold it up to herself in a comparison picture. She sure has grown a lot in ten years!
The next item was a yellow dress Jason's sister had made for Laura. The matching hat and scarf were not amongst the items in storage, but I was pleased to find the dress and had Laura hold it up to her as well.
The final item was a quilt Jason's mom had made for Micah. It had six handprint outlines: Micah's four grandparents, Jason's and mine. It was a neat gift and had been displayed in Micah's room when he was a baby.
It's neat to take a walk down memory lane and remember all the Lord has blessed us with: three of those blessings being our children. I was leafing through photo albums of their baby days and not getting a whole lot of packing done because of it. I'm happy to have these precious memories and look forward to making more.
