Thankful Thursday - Babies

How can you not love a baby?

Once I had a baby I was hooked. The sweet smell of Baby Magic and the silky soft skin, the innocent smile, bright and inquisitive eyes, and the total dependence. Yes, I was hooked.

I had four children and now have 23 grandchildren and two great grandchildren. Now that I no longer have babies at home, I have ones I gratefully borrow on my week ends. We explore stores, take nature walks, color, read, cuddle, laugh and talk.

I have a question to ask you; is this baby real?

I wander the web from time to time and happened upon this blog one day. I borrowed only one photo. There are many there and each is so precious. This is NOT a real baby. She makes the most exquisite dolls. Each one is hand made and such a work of art. I found myself falling in love all over again. I've placed Rhonda's link in the word blog above but will give it to you again. I would hate for you to miss out on a chance to see these beautiful babies. http://www.cuddleondelivery.com

I emailed her and got permission to post about her blog. She is so humble and sweet, just like the babies she creates. She realizes that there are adults who get a lot of joy from beholding the natural beauty of a newborn. Here is a portion of her response:

"I am simply a lady, who deeply cares about everyone, and is trying to make the world a bit better by giving to someone a bit of joy, by doing what I know how to do.

Thanks again Judy,"

And I say, thanks Rhonda. When people like you share their God given talent with the world it becomes an even more wonderful place to exist in.
