Sitting still

| Stacy

John has often said that one great thing about having a baby is you get more rest.  People often balk, “More rest!?”  And go on to cite the night time wakings and rockings.  But as John points out – babies like to be held.  They like to eat, like to sleep, and like to be held.  And it is hard to do a lot when you are holding…  so – we rest. 
I think God meant it that way, really.

But – as the older kids have gotten bigger, he and I seem to have fewer opportunities to hold and rest…  There is always someone else interested in the holding.
