Sunshine came to my house today…

 

Though the skies outside were cloudy, sunshine, (aka youngest granddaughter), came to my house today.

She played with the same little toys her mama and aunties used to play with

She is busy, busy, busy…but suddenly, she put her toys down and crawled up on my lap.

She rested her head on my shoulder and stroked my arm while I sang to her.

She sat there for less than five minutes before getting down to play some more.

But what a happy five minutes it was!

  4. How close we come to God when a child rests for a moment in our lap. I wonder if our prayers are for Him like your granddaughter's visit. You have been blessed and I am grateful that you shared these precious moments via Tuesdays Unwrapped. It has been a sweet delight.

  11. I have a little granddaughter that is almost 2 who came to us through adoption after many years of praying for her and the birthmother that God would see fit to use to bring her into our lives. She will suddenly stop playing to run over to me, hug my leg and say, "Hi, Gaga." It melts my heart. She, too, is my sunshine. She now has a little brother that I look forward to having my heart melted by. God is good all the time.
