Soft and tender, that's what newborns are. Sweet upon the cheek of mama.
I went for a soft look for the page. I got it in a color pencil rendition of the photo, found by playing around in the filters of Photoshop Elements. I also lowered the opacity on the 'drawing' and the stamp which says, "fresh from God"
We knew all of us have a debt hanging over us due to the federal government's spending being way out of control. But did you know that this little one was born to a debt of about $16,180...what each state resident owes because of the overspending of the states. Of course there are some states, that have been run by Republicans, which have good economies and no state debt. However, there are others, such as California, that are in BIG financial trouble. Remember, this is only the states' debt. The federal government's debt is another thing on top of that. We have saddled this little one with a responsibility to pay back money that we thought we couldn't do without. How very sad.
I pray that God will strengthen this upcoming generation, to give them the fortitude to do without unnecessary things in order to get a handle on the debt that we have not felt the need to repay. May they be stronger and better people than we have been. Not irresponsible like we have been. May they be blessed in their hard work and find themselves rewarded by good feelings about their own generation and may all their needs be met.
God Bless America.
