"Flock of babies" brings a very interesting mental picture to mind.

I'm seeing a border collie running and yipping, rounding them up ...

Are you sure it wasn't a gaggle? Perhaps a herd?

You look so regal, cool and priestly.

It is sometimes a strange transformation, and always surprises me a little when I look in the mirror and see this servant of God looking back at me.

That is the song of the moment, isn't it? I once had a room's ceiling strung over with white Christmas lights, and during especially trying times I would sit under that glow and listen to that song. Immediately transported.

And what a blessing to be able to baptize those babies before your journey. New starts all around.

I'd go with "gurgle," but those are all great!
