On this day millions of people all over the world celebrate the birth of a special child.
But, isn’t every child special?
Doesn’t every child deserve our love and support?
Here are some ways you can provide that if you choose to do so.
Knit/crochet/sew hats, booties and blankets for those babies born too soon: thepreemieproject.com
Donate formula and diapers to your local food bank.
Financially support medical and other organizations that care for mothers and infants that wouldn’t otherwise get care.
Some hospitals allow volunteers to hold/rock/feed babies. Look especially for children’s hospitals where parents may live too far away to cuddle their own babies.
There are many ways to love babies. I once worked in a church nursery where another volunteer told me she saw her job as showing all children that God loves them. Does that sound as wonderful to you as it does to me?
