Impatient, once we were. Patience suited the only option we had. To wait for God’s precious gift. Patiently we wait for her birth date. We patiently waited to know her gender.
Seconds turned to minutes. Minutes turned to hours. Hours turned to weeks. Weeks turned to months. For nine months we waited. 29th January 2012, we got our treasure.
The waiting is but not over. Now we wait to see her growth. We patiently wait to see her teen years. What kind of parent will she be? Will God’s grace and patience lead us to her grandparenthood?
This poem is dedicated to my six year old daughter.
