Babies are such a nice way to start people.
A baby is an inestimable blessing and bother.
A new baby is like the beginning of all things - wonder, hope, a dream of possibilities.

Father asked us what was God's noblest work. Anna said men, but I said babies. Men are often bad, but babies never are.
I didn't know how babies were made until I was pregnant with my fourth child.

He [Percy] pleaded with those sea-green eyes, like a cute baby seal that needed help. Piper wondered how Annabeth ever won an argument with this guy.
Piper bit her lip. The last thing she wanted to do was check Katopris for more terrifying images. 'I've tried,'she said.'The dagger doesn't always show what I want to see.
