Photo Hunt: Beautiful

Today’s Photo Hunt theme is: Beautiful


Lauren with her youngest cousin, D.

There is nothing more beautiful than the smiles of my lovely children. Children are one of life’s most beautiful gift and everyday, I thank God for blessing me with children. So, I often tell my kids this… “Oh, you are God’s gift to me” over and over again as I give them a warm hug and kiss.

One day when Lauren was four years old, I scolded her for not paying attention. She bent her head on her hands and looked up to me, her tears streaming down her beautiful face.

Am I not God’s gift to you?

Whenever I recall that incident, I often kick myself for not being more patient. My beautiful daughter reminds me that God is good and forgiving. Maybe God will forgive me for being an impatient mom.

My other beautiful child is my second daughter. She thinks that she looks like me. Not that it is a bad thing though.

of course, memories of my beautiful 6 year old son will always be in my heart.


What is beautiful to you?

Just like you, my son is what is beautiful to me. I am just simply amazed by how he has grown in such a long time. He is turning three this September and I can’t simply help but wonder how he started out as a beautiful baby who would not lift his own head to the little guy who he is now and who just could not stop but ask questions.

I definitely agree with you about our children being God’s gifts to us.

I took on another interpretation with my PH entry:
La Vita e Bella

If I have children, I’m sure they will be the best I ever seen…But for now, my heart goes to my little nephew. He is 8 months old. So cute…He is the most handsome baby for me :)
