Inspirational Quotes About Babies

These verse and quotes about babies are all positive, inspirational words of wisdom and love.

I have always thought that babies are an absolute joy and each one is a perfect, unique miracle.

The most precious moment of my life was when my first baby was placed in my arms after the birth. The immense feeling of love that I felt was indescribable, even now, thirty plus years later, I still treasure that moment, I just think about the weight of that little bundle of love in my arms and I am uplifted. I also felt the same with my other children, but I think the first sticks in your mind more, because it's a new experience.

I now have seven grandchildren to adore, each one is yet another miracle and the greatest treasures of life.

Inspirational Quotes About Babies

Vincent van Gogh 1853 - 1890

If one feels the need of something grand, something infinite, something that makes one feel aware of God, one need not go far to find it. I think that I see something deeper, more infinite, more eternal than the ocean in the expression of the eyes of a little baby when it wakes in the morning and coos or laughs because it sees the sun shining on it's cradle.

Letter From Newborn

Dear Mummy and Daddy

No matter what happens between us, during my childhood I shall love you unconditionally.

You are my guides, my supports, my lifetime anchors...for whatever becomes of me, depends on our time together.

From you I will learn what love is. I will learn to be confident or shy, giving or selfish, loving or cruel. I will learn what is right and wrong, who I should respect and whether I should respect myself...and love myself.

As I come into this world, into your tender care, I am a vast clean sponge, I will soak up every look, every touch, every thought, every word, every feeling and it will mould me into the person that I will become.

So in the days, weeks, months and years ahead, remember that, every touch, thought, word, feeling and look, I will absorb.

If you treat me with love, caring, respect, tolerance, forgiveness, understanding, even when I do things wrong, then I will grow up into a kind, considerate, confident, loving, responsible person.

But if you treat me with intolerance, uncaring, harshness, words of anger, neglect...
I will be sad...
