Love All Around!



John 13:34-35
A new command I give you:  Love one another.  As I have loved you, so you must love one another.  By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.

Hi, World!

My name is Alexandra Nancy.  I won't be four weeks old until August 23rd, but already, I love my big sister, Virginia Rose.



She seems to understand me just like Mommy and Daddy do.



So gentle with me, so happy to be near me, she makes me feel right at home in my new life here on earth.



Even when I poke her in the nose, she takes it all in stride.

I am one fortunate baby sister; I can state that as fact!



There is love all around.

Love all around!

~

How are you spreading Jesus' love all around today?

Prayers:  Father, Your beloved Son, Jesus, invited the little children to come to Him.  He understood better than anyone their ability to embrace the love of others and to love others in return.  May we all be as innocent children when it comes to loving our neighbors as ourselves.  In Jesus' name, we pray.  Amen.

    1. I actually have three, Ceil, just like you do. These were photos my daughter snapped when Virginia was interacting with our newest. Savannah Jane is 15 months old, and is caught in the midst of it all, but not on camera.
      And, yes, the parents need sleep!! Thank you for your blessings, hugs, and prayers!
      Hope to see photos of your latest grand, too!
      Love and blessings!
