William

You might remember Caitlin and Scott (and here) who were married last year.

They've just had a baby boy - William. He is adorable.

I love this picture. It reminds me of one of my favourite poems On Children, by Kahlil Gilbran.

The last stanza:

You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite,
and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far.
Let our bending in the archer's hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable.

Scott has a tattoo on one arm with Caitlin's name, and for William, he's had another tattoo - baby blocks with William's name and date of birth. Love it.

So sweet. And, are babies supposed to be able to roll onto their backs at 2 months? Because William can!


A sweet funny face.

I love the contrast of sweet babies with their strong daddy's hands.

Congratulations Caitlin and Scott. William is wonderful.
