Our baby girl is quite the ‘little helper.’ She is so eager, insistent really, to be involved and to learn. And I want to take the time to make the learning fun for her, to cause her to want to continue to be involved and helpful. And while I am taking the time to teach her, I also want to take the time for myself, to enjoy these moments that will become cherished memories in my own mind. It too often is these simple moments of chores or other usual daily activities that we tend to just take for granted. I don’t want to take these moments for granted - the time is going by too fast, and my baby girl is growing up!
When I was a kid, my mother used to wake me up in the mornings, singing this Psalm to me – every morning. I didn’t realize it at the time, but this was becoming instilled in me. So much so that when I moved out, when I would wake up on my own, I could still hear ‘her singing’ in my thought processes each and every morning – but it was a good thing to be thinking of every morning [Thank you Mama!]. There is something about knowing that, whatever the day may bring, the Lord is in control because He made ‘THIS DAY.’
I couldn’t help but reminisce this morning about my mornings waking up back at home with my mother, as this morning I was singing this same Psalm to my 1½-year-old little girl as she was awaking from her slumber. I pray that these moments will also be a blessing to her life and that they will create good memories for her and, who knows, maybe the tradition will continue and one day her child(ren) will be waking up to her songs too.
