Let them be little...
"So let them be little,
'Cause they're only that way for a while.
Give 'em hope, give them praise,
Give them love every day.
Let 'em cry, let 'em giggle,
Let 'em sleep in the middle,
Oh, but let them be little. "
--Billy Dean
Any country fan has heard the words of that song. Any parent can relate to it. This song struck me today. I took my kids shoe shopping (again). It seems that before I know it, they've out grown their old clothes and shoes. I always pray that they'll be little just a little longer. At the same time, cheering every milestone and every accomplishment. Of course, God just smiles and lets them grow.

Your children are so LOVELY, Athena!! That song always makes me teary - especially the part about "let them sleep in the middle . . ." BIG SIGH. D is outgrowing her shoes and that makes me sad, too.
