“There is one order of beauty which seems made to turn heads. It is a beauty like that of kittens, or very small downy ducks making gentle rippling noises with their soft bills, or babies just beginning to toddle.”
~T.S. Eliot
Of course the beauty of a baby trumps any other cuteness… and hearing our unborn baby’s heartbeat on Friday carried a beauty that I can’t even explain.
