Now here's our Jesse boy @ one!

I haven't done the best with blogging lately (hope to catch up soon) but I couldn't miss this post because TODAY IS A VERY SPECIAL DAY! One year ago today (12:22 AM to be exact) the Lord blessed us with the most precious baby boy. I look back over the last year and so many emotions fill my heart--I remember being a little nervous about being a mommy but I was also sooooooo excited and thankful that God intrusted this baby to us to raise and nurture. And I can honestly say, the last year has been absolutely amazing! This little boy has brought so many smiles, laughs, poops :), and love into our lives this year and I just tear up thinking about how blessed we are. I pray every day that God will raise him up to be a man of God with integrity and humility. I pray that he will love the Lord Jesus with his whole heart and I pray that Joshua and I will be the type of parents who are encouraging & uplifting to his life. So, today, on this very special day, Jesse, I hope you know how honored I am to be your mommy. Other than marrying your daddy, YOU are the most wonderful thing that has ever happened to me and I love you more than words can express. I am so proud of you already!!! Happy 1st B-day my little love bug, Jesse boy, etc! :)

Celebrating Three Wonderful Years!

Today, Joshua and I are celebrating our three year anniversary! I can't believe how quickly the last three years have gone--it feels just as though our wedding was a few days ago--but at the same time, I can't remember what it is like to not be married to Joshua. I love this man more and more every day and I thank God for blessing us with a love like we share! Happy Anniversary, honey, I love you!
