I haven't met him yet. But, I know his name. It's Benjamin. I can't wait to see him. He's due to arrive around Thanksgiving. No, he's never been here before....He's never been anywhere before, actually. But he will make his first appearance in Arkansas. Now, I fully intend to be there, although he won't remember who is present at his debut of life...
I prayed for him the other day. Prayed that he will be a man of God...with a heart for God. He doesn't know about homework...or the fun he will have, or the girl that will one day steal his heart. He's just a baby. Sleeping and nourishment will be his focus and he will cry about both of them any time, any place, day or night.
His name is from the Hebrew name בִּנְיָמִין (Binyamin) which means "son of the south" or "son of the right hand". Benjamin in the Old Testament was the twelfth and youngest son of Jacob and the founder of one of the southern tribes of the Hebrews.
Benjamin will be my fourth grandchild. I have Brooke, Scott, Chloe and now Benjamin. Great-G-children are Lexie, and Noah. I am blessed! They are all beautiful. Absolutely, I'm prejudice! Each of them won my heart the moment they arrived!
Bank on it. This will be a great holiday season and I'll certainly post pictures of all my babies - even the grown ones!
I know you feel the same about yours...
