“A Moment I Can’t Put Into Words”
This past Saturday, Nicky and I experienced a tremendous blessing. This was a “moment I can’t put into words.” As we turned around during the baby reveal, we discovered we are getting a granddaughter! Seeing my son, Nick, and his wife, Mallory, turn around to find the most beautiful shades of pink balloons floating in the air is “a moment that I can’t put into words.” Their faces were filled with a joy that I will never forget.
“Whatever is good and perfect comes down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens. He never changes or casts a shifting shadow.” James 1:17 (NLT)
Time thinking about my mom
On this day, I also spent time thinking about my mom. I thought about the love she had being Nick’s “Gram.” I can’t ever remember a single time I didn’t see her eyes light up when she saw him. I can remember the joy he brought her. When Nick heard the words, “We are going to Gram’s,” the biggest smile would instantly appear. Nick knew when he went to Gram’s, he would be dancing, singing, playing baseball, and riding the golf cart to Aunt Tricia’s house where a snack just for him would be in the pantry. Their love for each other was so precious. These are “moments I can’t put into words” also.
Looking forward to more moments to put into words
I want my granddaughter to experience so many things with me. I can already see us making cupcakes, decorating cookies, singing, dancing, and going to the beach. I can see school and sporting events. But I know that the biggest gift I can give her, is to faithfully pray for her.
“Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth.” Psalm 127:4 (NIV)
Nick and Mallory have prayed for this child for a long time. They even had prayer walls and wrote down every prayer. They are going to make the most amazing parents. Nixon Lyn Browder is one blessed little girl. Watching Nixon grow up, I know will be full of “moments I can’t put into words.”
Counting My Blessings,
