Don't forget

As a new mother you quickly learn that there is nothing as sweet and pure as a new spirit from our Heavenly Father. And you can't help but have some of that rub off on you while you are holding a little baby in your arms.



I have often wondered how thin the veil is for a baby. To me it seems like heaven eminates from every pore just like that wonderful newborn baby smell. Here is one of my favorite stories that helps illustrate that point. A mother had recently brought a newborn home from the hospital. Not long after, her three-year-old sister said, “Mommy, can I go in and see my baby sister?” The mother replied, “Surely, take my hand.” The little girl replied, “No, I want to go alone.” So the mother opened the door to the nursery and stood by the door watching her little daughter. The little girl approached the crib, looked down at her little sister and said, “Tell me about Jesus. I’m beginning to forget.”
