Over the past two months I have been going over my class material looking for something new that would get the new dad’s attention. In the process I found myself wondering what would be going through a brand new mom’s mind. I would like to share with you what I found.
Consider this, if the roles could be reversed...You've just given everything you've had to bring this new life into the world, the doctor is finishing up, all the excitement is across the room with all the family filled with excitement. Suddenly, without any sense of expectation, the one you love sits close beside you, gently holds your hand for just a brief moment and simply slips a small hand written card into your grasp. I wonder how we would feel to have those fleeting thoughts on paper that would be remembered for a life time!
So, as you are packing bags to go to the hospital for the delivery of your baby, take the time to include a few of those general purpose “Thank You” or “I Love You” cards. Who knows, you may find more than one reason to leave your loved one a special note on the occasion.
