It’s so amazing!



We’ve been amazed at God’s handiwork in designing this institution of parenthood including pregnancy. Most evenings as we walk we find ourselves amazed at the way a baby remains cocooned in his/her mother’s womb, sleeping, waiting, biding his/her time before entering into a bustling world.

And then about the bond … We’ve been realizing that even if there’s nothing in the world you can call your very own, your children always remain your very own. Of course, we haven’t forgotten Kahlil Gibran’s often-quoted verses on children.

And then about the gift … As each day of our pregnancy goes by, we realize that children are a gift from God. Yes, we’ll hear complaints from others, we might crib too but the bottom line remains – children are a gift from God.
