Day 10: Second Best

I am the SECOND.
My husband is the SECOND.
My son is the SECOND.
And now my son's SECOND has just been birthed.
A son.
A new born.
A new life.
The JOY of this moment.
The miracle of birth,
as I remember my SECOND'S birth as if it was yesterday,
And now my little boy is cradling his SECOND.
Oh how we are just the delivery vessels of GOD,
as GOD entrusts a little one into our care,
yet we don't do it alone.
For we are all just vessels
created by HIM for HIM
to be filled with
HIS PEACE & PRESENCE
that is not of ourselves.
Oh to take SECOND place when you want to be first.
