For only five short, bold, beautiful minutes. Unscripted and unedited. We just write without worrying if it’s just right or not.
Today’s Prompt — VIVID
Joining with http://thegypsymama.com/2012/01/five-minute-friday-vivid
start
As usual I read a few 5MF’s to see what others are writing about, a couple wrote about the vividness of the color of flowers and yes, I do appreciate that color.
My mind went another direction. I thought about the vividness of the memories of the first time I looked into my baby’s eyes.
#1 — Baby girl born 9 weeks early, tiny with deep blue eyes.
#2 — Baby boy born on his due day, looking like my brothers with blue eyes.
#3 — Baby girl born 15 days late, oh look, brown eyes like her father.
#4 — Baby boy born 10 days late, again dark brown eyes.
#5 — Baby girl born 10 days late, blue eyes shining and bright.
I can close my eyes and see their eyes waiting to. . . LOOK !
stop
I don’t have pictures available of baby eyes, so I’ll share this one of eyes all grown up and still looking.

Thoughts of Grace 
How cool that your babies were born alternating girl/boy. Mine were boy/girl, all born with blue eyes (that remained blue) except for the 2nd son. His were a very muddy color that were brown by the end of the first week. Now, they are so dark brown that you can hardly see his pupils. 🙂
I’m here from Five Minute Friday. I hope that you have a blessed Sunday!
Thanks for visiting, Five Minute Fridays are fun, never know what is going to show up on the post.
