Let's Talk Baby Talk
Carson Anna Conrad, Charleston, SC
Do I have the best job in the world? I was asked to take a picture of this little sweetie pie. What a darling. I had to get this close just to sniff that fresh baby smell. She was born early and was snuggled up in a soft "bundle" that volunteers from Newborns in Need had made and the nurses wanted a picture to show them how it was being used. The model's mother happily agreed that I could share her picture with you.
If it takes a village to raise a child, it's comforting to know village matriarchs all over the country are busy knitting bonnets and booties and sewing up cozy "bundles" to send our babies home well loved.
I give a lot of hospital tours and end each one with a peak in the nursery. It's a great way to end the tour and in this case the day. G'night kids.
Adorable.
ReplyDeleteOk, as a rule I'm not all that sentimental but that baby is sweet, sweet, sweet.
ReplyDeleteAwww, what a sweet picture. Baby breath. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's tough to get a bad baby pic, but that photo is perfect, Joan!
ReplyDeleteBy your entry's title I was expecting all the comments to say, "Ga ga, goo goo, blub." :)
ReplyDeleteCute lil' kid.

Awwww!! Little booboo!!If my wife sees this picture, I'll be in trouble!But that is quite possibly the cutest little girl I've ever seen!
ReplyDeleteOn an unrelated note, I was so relieved to find your blog again! i used to have a blog called "Song of November" and you and I conversed back and forth for a while.I used to live in Charleston, and I used to visit there vicariously thru your pictures and stories. After a computer crash I lost your blog addressand it has bugged me ever since. But i found you again and all is right in my little chunk of the "blogoshpere" again.
Thank goodness you posted at Mike's with your new link. I was having a worry because your journalspace thing was gone!
