child-like faith

I was saving these incredible pics from (https://majormamaphotography.passgallery.com/portfolio) our homecoming this past May.  D had been away from the kids for five months, and this was the first time they saw him (I visited him twice).  As I looked at some of these pictures with the viewpoint of time, I could see this hug in a different way than when I first looked at these pictures.  

I know exactly how she feels, wrapped in her Daddy's arms.  The world has righted itself and all is okay.  They are both so unaware of what is going on around them, and you can see his fierce love for his baby girl.  I still feel this way when I hug my Daddy.  More than that, it was such a picture to me today of how my Heavenly Father loves me!  We are called to love and trust God with such a child-like faith.  I was reminded of this as I looked at these pictures again.
