One of them was this TREASURE of a moment between Megan, our newborn granddaughter, and David, our third son. Uncle David really "took up with" the two babies, and a couple of times (other than this one caught on digital camera) during our stay there he showed a tender love and concern for his brand new nephew and niece.
This might not seem like a big deal to most families and most younger brothers, but in our family it is HUGE! You see, our David doesn't communicate as well or as easily as do the rest of us. Every opportunity that he takes advantage of (for communicating) is a prized gift to the rest of us. And his devotion to the precious new additions to the family was truly a special thing to his dear old Mom. : )
It is important for ALL of us to be aware that each person in our lives is continually making attempts to communicate with us. It's so easy to let those moments go by, letting the words fall on deaf ears, or to be brushed aside quickly in order to give our attention to something else deemed urgent at the time. We might find that communication with some people is harder than with other people, but all people communicate... and all people need to be "heard". Maybe there's someone you know who needs a little special time of communication from you... I pray that you make time for just that!
Let's not forget that all of us need a special time of communication with our heavenly Father... and that He is both speaking and listening to us. Yes, THIS is the real treasure!
