“When God wants a great work done in the world or a great wrong righted, he goes about it in a very unusual way. He doesn’t stir up his earthquakes or send forth his thunderbolts. Instead, he has a helpless baby born, perhaps in a simple home of some obscure mother. And then God puts the idea into the mother’s heart, and she puts it into the baby’s mind. And then God waits. The greatest forces in the world are not the earthquakes and the thunderbolts. The greatest forces in the world are babies.” Charles L. Wallis
My sweet little niece, Jayne Elizabeth, was born this past Wednesday.
She is so different from her older sister, Audrey. She is calm. I'm not sure if Audrey is a fan. She pulled the baby carrier toward her dad, pointed to it and said "away." My guess is that she's a little jealous. This was Jayne's response:

So cute-even when she is crying! Look at all that hair, what a doll. You are a lucky aunt.
I love that quote, so powerful and true. :)
She is adorable and I love how they spelled Jayne! I love that her binki is almost bigger than her head :)
oh I liked your quote. I would also add/adjust the end to say "the greatest forces in the world are mothers." But that's what I got out of it. :)
