Advent of Arrival

See with open eyes, even blink
Reach ten tiny fingers towards us, even grasp

Sunlight will warm your naked skin
while our songs surround you
when will you first smile?
soon

I have waited for snow to melt
and colors to bloom
and green to climb mountains
and leaves to fall

Never before have I waited
for a life to fill our days

Amazing and beautiful words. I'm so excited to be an UNCLE soon! How weird is that. Just yesterday we were making up stories about Mrs. Boogerpicker and building forts in the woods. God has done some awesome stuff in our lives since then, and this new life is one of the MOST awesome!
