Baby Dedication...

Making mother's day even more special was the fact that the babies were dedicated to God on Sunday. It was very sweet!

Elijah Day

With our Pastor Scott Moore

When Evan came home a friend of mine gave me Celine Dion's CD, Miracle A Celebration of Life. Just after we got home, some nights I would play it in his room and rock him while I listened to it. My favorite was Beautiful Boy. I now have lots of favorites on that CD, it's great for new moms.

When the twins first came home from the hospital, I played it while I was up with them. I can remember so many nights, holding a baby listening to the songs, trying to focus on the words just to stay awake. This became on of my favorites then and I thought it was perfect for this post.

I sing this prayer for each of my three sweet babies.

A Mother's Prayer

Celine Dion

I pray you'll be my eyes
And watch her where she goes
And help her to be wise
Help me to let go


Every mother's prayer
Every child knows
Lead her to a place
Guide her with your grace
To a place where she'll be safe


I pray she finds your light
And holds it in her heart
As darkness falls each night
Remind her where you are


Every mother's prayer
Every child knows
Need to find a place
Guide her to a place

Give her faith so she'll be safe
Lead her to a place
Guide her with your grace
To a place where she'll be safe

Deuteronomy 6:4-7

4 Listen, Israel: The Lord is our God, the Lord is one! 5 You must love the Lord your God with your whole mind, your whole being, and all your strength. 6 These words I am commanding you today must be kept in mind, 7 and you must teach them to your children and speak of them as you sit in your house, as you walk along the road, as you lie down, and as you get up
