This morning Elli and I were gazing with wonder at awe and fascination at baby Benjamin. He was born last week and is still so new and little. As we were watching him, we listened to Little Little Baby by The Harmonica Pocket. It is the perfect song for admiring little baby body parts: eyes, ears, nose, feet and hands. My favorite part of the song says “And your little baby breaths!”

Having a little baby around has been so much fun. We are all filled with wonder and joy over every little thing he does. Even when he cries we all say, “Oh, how cute!” That little scrunched up face is so adorable. Sammi can’t walk anywhere near Benjamin without stopping to look at him, kiss him or get him to hold her finger. Even Scott loves to hold Baby “Benyamen” as he calls him.
