Thankfulness

Good Morning Beloved's

The happenings of Hunter have been so exciting and plentiful the past few weeks!
We are so very proud of our big boy! I've been so overwhelmed with gratitude and thankfulness!

Forgive me for being so lazy and not posting
(I took these all this morning, it took some encouragement and a little nudge to get them on photo )

My New Tricks
So excited to pull up to his knees
focusing
I have to get an electronic to get him to do this one!!
I'll let me phone get banged on the floor anytime to help teach my kiddo!!
pulling to his knees in his crib =D
and like I said electronics or wanting mommy works for this one.
I also can't believe that we are preparing for Hunter's 1st Birthday! Where does time go?! I am so excited for his birthday but in the same breath it brings me to tears that my baby boy is getting older. Last night I rocked him to sleep and normally I just give him a kiss put him down in his bed, but not last night.
I held him so tightly, watching his little facial expressions as he slept, kissed his little cheeks and just rocked him a little longer while taking it all in. I thanked the Lord for my precious gift and just prayed. GOD IS GREAT!

I was at a wedding a few weeks back and I heard the song "I hope you dance" It was just so sweet. Here is one line that overwhelmed me.

"I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances
But they're worth taking"

So baby boy
Love God with all your heart, share the gospel with everyone, challenge yourself and never give up. You will always have Mommy and Daddy here to cheer you on!!

Thank you, Jesus for giving me such an amazing husband who cares for me, our precious little boy and thank you for this new precious baby that you have allowed to grow in my womb.
With tears of Joy, THANK YOU!
