GRATITUDE

Cole was born Thursday, September 9th at 8:41 pm
6 lbs and 18 1/2 inches

You are my God, and I will give you thanks;
you are my God, and I will exalt you.
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
his love endures forever.
Psalm 118:28-29
If anything makes me emotional over the past 11 days since our precious boy came into the world its an overflowing heart of GRATITUDE.
First, GRATITUDE to my savior for how he had his hand on our family over the past several weeks leading up to Cole's arrival. I know his hand is on us all the time but I really felt his presence during a time when there were a lot of unknowns. A time when normally I would have been scared and full of anxiety but in the few days leading up to Cole's delivery God gave me a beautiful peace...only the kind he can give.
Secondly, I have GRATITUDE for all our faithful friends and family who have lifted us up for weeks. You all have no idea how much it has meant to us knowing that all of you were praying. Thank you is not enough. Just know that I am thanking the Lord for all of YOU!
So, if your just tuning in, stay tuned for the BIRTH STORY! I'll be working on that the next few days!
