Angels On Earth

Each day I get to gently soothe a wee one to sleep, sometimes two or three.  
I watch their eyes slowly...slowly...slowly close.  Before this, they have a huge exhausted yawn, rub their eyes and sometimes sigh.
They are little angels on earth.
This is one of my favourite parts of my day.
These little ones "warm my womb" (in the words of Paul).
I love the moments of picking them up, getting a cuddle, seeing them discover something new or accomplish something on their own.
I look forward to seeing them each day,
my little angels on earth.
