I’M BACK!

Woah! It’s been soooo long since I last posted. So much has happened… I’ll guess I’ll just have to pick up from here  =)

The other night we were celebrating a friend’s bday. T’was meant to be a surprise party involving family & friends… but the people who fell under the ‘friends’ category were all 2.5 hours late with the bday boy (in their defense, it wasn’t their fault).

Anyhow, I found myself surrounded by the bday boy’s family… which was fine by me coz the crowd included an extremely adorable 9 month old bub. For 2.5 hours, I watched as the bub’s doting grandparents played with him, cuddled and kissed him, fussed over him, clearly very proud of him and saying over and over again how he is THE cutest baby on earth! (a comment which I politely smiled at… hey, he IS adorable!… but no one will ever win over my heart like my little niece & nephews… competition is simply non-existent!), helping him take very shaky, aided steps yet seeing the potential of a champion rugby player in him.  (their behaviour, might I say, is exactly like that of my parents with my niece and nephews =) )

Such expressions of love, joy, tenderness… such hope and belief in the little one… such pleasure in receiving a response from him. As I watched this beautiful exchange, I begin to ponder… I wonder if that’s what God is like with us.
