The Little Hand In Mine

It's been many years since the tiny hand first wrapped around my finger. Another love had come into my life, a glorious forever love. My little Bettina. It is such a simple act, holding your childs' hand as they grow, but it means so much. You're their safety, their provider, teacher, nurse, friend and confidant all wrapped up into one. I am thankful to God for the joy in my heart that will never go away because it was given to me to be Mommy to such a precious child. I got to hold her hand again as I walked her down the aisle, remembering what it felt like all those years. The little baby face with the big green eyes and and the mop of hair. The little girl with her hair long and wavy, with a big smile on her face, loving me and her brother and sisters so much. I remembered her as she grew into a lovely young lady, inside and out. When she held my hand I hope she felt all my love for her and how much I want her happiness. It was another highlight in my life !!!!! She was just SO beautiful, like a little princess. How proud I was to place her hand in Dave's. God bless their life together.
