Welcome to mama-hood Kate Middleton.
I love that even though you're royalty, you had to labor and push that baby into the world, just like the rest of us mamas. I love that even though you're married to a prince, you won't get a straight eight hours of sleep for many months to come. And while you were standing in wedges with perfectly flowing hair, just 24 hrs after birthing that baby, I sat thinking how you'll get pooped on within the week. Yes, that's what it's all about and not even you, Kate, can escape it.
And isn't it wonderful?
A sweet, baby boy.
And we love him, because he's yours and William's, a prince.
With all the talk and twitter and constant coverage, my mind wanders back to another Prince, born thousands of years ago.
And if he were born today, with all the internet and social media and easy news access, would he have been bombarded by paparazzi and blogged about and googled?
I can't answer that for sure, but my guess is no.
Because the whole thing about that baby, the Lord of Lords, was that he came into the world humble, innocent, widely unknown.
It had to be that way.
He had to be just like us, the common, the beggars, the poor.
He had to be accessible and approachable so that we could be saved.
So welcome to the world little prince of Cambridge. I pray that you grow to one day know and honor your creator.
The
One
True
King.
