The fog has fallen as a blanket across the Grand Ledge area this morning. As my wife and I were racing out the door off to another long day of work we realized that this was the first time our son Marcus has seen fog, or at least noticed the fog. He was so cute. My wife had the light of her car on and we could see the small particles of water slowly falling in the bright beams. Marcus was so excited! He would stand in the light and put his hand out as if to catch the dust like precipitation and shrieked with amazement and delight.
Driving into work I got to thinking about Marcus and how much of a blessing he is. I thank God for him every day, but it wasn’t always this way. Soon after we brought Marcus home, not being sure if it was the sheer exhaustion or not, but when Marcus would wake up every two hours there would be times when I just wanted to shake him to make him be quiet. It those moments I could see how someone could shake their baby. I never gave into this passing desire, and those days shortly past.
Being that I work in the music industry I always seem to have a song to illustrate a moment in life. The song that can to mind today was “Blessings” by Laura Story. Story just earned a Grammy award for her latest album entitled “Blessings”.
Here is the song that has meant so much to me over the last few months.

I love that song. It has gotten me through some tough times. I may not see things as a blessing, but I know that God is working it out for the best in our lives.
Marcus is so precious, you are SO blessed to have such a well behaved, sensitive, smart little boy.
