Matthew 19:14

"Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." -Matthew 19:14

Sunday was our baby dedication at Church. At the beginning of the service, they called all of the new babies and parents up to the front. There was a slideshow of each family, the elders gave us all a rose and a bible, the congregation made a pledge to help us raise our children to know God, and the parents made a pledge as well. We were then escorted down the aisles of the church and the members surrounded us and prayed over us and our babies. It was very special and such a wonderful day. Colt did wonderful and loved the rose they gave us. He just wanted to eat it.

After the service, we met about 30 more of our close family and friends at Mema's house for lunch. Tammy slaved in the kitchen making a wonderful lunch for 30+ in honor of Colt. Tammy, I can't tell you how wonderful it was! It was so great and the food was AMAZING as always! You never fail to outdo yourself. Thank you thank you thank you!

My little family

Looks like Colt & Daddy are WIPED out!

Tammy gave me this great book called "The Power of a Praying Parent." I started it yesterday and it really is good. All mommies and/or dads go out and get one :) I find great peace in knowing Colt is God's and God is in control.

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." -Jeremiah 29:11-13

"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." -Psalm 139:13-14
