A close friend of mine just emailed me word that their first grandchild had arrived. Included in the email was a link to some pix taken on the birth day. I thought this one in particular pretty much summed up the whole thing for anyone who's a dad.
This child has no idea--yet--how extravagantly he's been blessed to be born into the family he just met. It's a great day for him and them. They're not perfect, but they are three generations, now four, who have worked hard to make decisions that honor God, love each other, and yield long-haul benefits vs. short-run convenience. And, on days like yesterday, they get to enjoy the payoffs.
And so does anyone who comes in contact with them.
