Quilt Square #14

These colorful squares come to us from the Smith family in Louisiana.

The card includes a poem written by Danise Smith. It goes like this:

Heartbeat of the Father

Adoption was God's special plan from the start

Not a physical birth from the body

But from love born in the heart.

As you, dear child, were born in mine,

Also born of our heavenly Father,

His plan from the beginning of time.

You are loved beyond measure,

In ways I can't explain,

In you God has created a valuable treasure.

My heart fills with joy and anticipation,

As I wait to bring you home,

You are my precious child sent from another nation.

With you my family is complete,

Sealed in my heart forever,

Divinely reflecting our Father's own heartbeat.

Baby Girl Rainbows

At the end of this rainbow

With light in your eyes,

You will see much magic,

Bringing greatest surprise.

A story of old,

At the end of this rainbow,

A wish and a song

Just to help you along.

A pot of gold,

At the end of this rainbow,

Colors and hue

Painted radiantly true.

At the end of this rainbow

Your dreams may come true

The end of this rainbow

Is for New Baby Girl and you.

In a word, there are three things that last forever: faith, hope, and love; but the greatest of them all is love."
