A little break from the relentless cycle of negative news...

T housands of newborns today H ope in each full-throated cry E bullient parents fly high N o need to ask them why, their E very thought, their every prayer W inging its way Upstairs N ews in Heaven spreads fast E very angel well-pleased W ith all the positive news S hare it in millions of views

Parents happy, angels rejoicing, you make the birth of a child a joyful celebration. Reminded me of the birth of my son. Take care Rama

Amazing to imagine all the angels rejoicing at each new birth! This is a perspective we don't think about enough, all the views we are getting from above.

That’s lovely Gershon, a new birth is always good news, tiny miracles so small and sweet, perfection from head to tiny hands and feet... Belle

Yes, indeed. Love your comment, Belle: 'perfection from head to tiny hands and feet.' So tiny and so cute! Love those babies. :) gw
