Who serves the other? The baby or his parents? Yet who is in authority?
"Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death— even death on a cross! Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." (Phil 2:5-11)

hmm... while i can think of (and have seen/heard, albeit in the newspapers and shows like super nanny) counter examples where it's actually the baby/child who seems to have the actual authority, i found this entry quite pithy and profound. thanks for sharing the analogy :)
