This morning I watched as our sweet little baby, Bracken, kicked his legs and stared with complete fascination at the ceiling lights. He babbled away, having a conversation with heaven. At least I'm pretty sure he was having a conversation with Heaven; a good comforting chat with his loved ones who have been here or are yet to come. The veil is surely thin, and sometimes I get to be a spectator in that glorious interaction. These sweet little babies are attracted to light, because Heaven is bright and light. To quote my sweet 2 year old niece Jocelyn, "Jesus is bright Daddy." Babies are bright and pure and sweet and heavenly themselves. Light attracts light. I'm so grateful to have a piece of that in my home. It makes heaven on earth a reality. Babies - what sweet, sanctifying, bright, innocent, peaceful additions they are.
