The loveliest baby in the world.
This is the baby I have yet to cuddle and hold in my arms. He lives 14,000 miles away. Born in the USA on May 5 this year, he lives in Grand Rapids, Michigan with his parents—my second son, JB, and his wife, Gianina.
Someday, my husband and I promise (and threaten), we will spoil Adrian, our first and only grandson. Meanwhile, we will treasure all his photos and videos as though he were right here. Funny how one little bundle can render a writer wordless.So let me borrow from (this definitely dates me) Stevie Wonder who celebrated his daughter Aisha’s birth in 1976 with the song, “Isn’t she lovely?” I am taking the liberty of changing some words for my purposes—like she to he and Aisha to Adrian.
Isn't he lovely?Isn't he wonderful?
Isn't he precious?
Less than five months old
I never thought through love we'd be
Sharing one as lovely as he
But isn't he lovely made from love
Isn't he pretty
Truly the angel's best
Boy, I'm so happy
We have been heaven blessed
I can't believe what God has done
through our children He's given life to one
But isn't he lovely made from love
Isn't he lovely
Life and love are the same
Life is Adrian…
Isn’t he lovely?
(A gift of grace is he.)

Hi, Les!
I was just chatting with Gianina about Adrian. She really has her hands full being what they call in America SAHM (Stay at Home Mom). But I guess that's the best part of motherhood which many of us, in my generation, were not able to do. And the guilt stays on.
Blessings and warm regards.
