A Day of Celebration!

Today, we had a day of celebration at our church (Hamilton Crossroads Church of Christ). We celebrated our families and all the new babies that have become a part of our congregation over the past two years. We've had 17 babies that have been born or adopted to families in our church in the past two years, so we have much to celebrate! That is a lot of new children for our small church. The church set aside a day to pray for our babies and their families. The service was very good and the babies were each given a bible with their name on it. We had a fellowship meal afterwards with lots of good food! It was a great day and I enjoyed it so much. Brian & I pray that we will be good parents to Addie and raise her in good faith. We are truly blessed and I thank God everyday for blessing me with so much, especially a healthy, happy, beautiful, sweet baby girl. As parents, we continuously worry about making the right decisions and teaching our children what is important in life. It is really comforting to know that we have the prayers and blessings from our church family. We couldn't do it without them.

Here are a few pictures from our special day:
