GRACE

When Grace was still in her mummy's tummy, there was a bit of anxiety as a pre-natal check showed that her nuchal fold measurement was slightly above the normal range. That would indicate a possibility of chromosomal defect and a possibility of a baby with special needs. We were in agony over the news. We fasted and prayed for God's intervening hand in this matter. So when the baby was born, she was given the name Grace - as a reminder of God's grace to our prayers. 

From a helpless babe, she has grown to a feisty little girl with a mind of her own.

Feeling cosy in grandma's arms

 At 8 months, trying to understand what the grown ups are saying to her.

She is turning up to be a regular bookworm. Here she is gravitating towards the bookshelf........

Choosing a favourite book and looking at grandma as if saying : Will you read to me?

Learning to share a book with a friend.

Just love to see her bonding with big brother. And see the cheeky grin of delight

                   

Nathan, being the first grandchild will always have a special place in grandparents' heart but it's true, with each grandchild, the heart grows bigger to accommodate another addition. How blessed we are! As the psalmist in Psalm 128 ; 3-6 wrote :-

"........ your sons (daughter) will be like olive shoots around your table. (4) Thus is the man blessed who fears the LORD. (5) May the LORD bless you from Zion all the days of your life.........(6) and may you live to see your children's children....."
