Celebrating New Life

As time passes, new generations are born and old ones die.  How evident this has been for me recently!

After two very difficult weeks, today was a day to celebrate new life.  Our good friends Annie and Joe had a baby boy today.  Our tears of disappointment over my mom were turned to joyous smiles for them.  We have been so filled with heavy hearts for so many days, that their good news was a reason to be happy.  A reason to smile.

I am not sure exactly what I believe about “the afterlife”, but I know that my mom loved babies and she loved Annie and Joe, and so I’d like to believe that she is watching over their new baby boy, his special guardian angel.
