Happy mothers day!

Averi and mommy on mothers day!


My first mothers day was GREAT! Kev bought me an orchid plant... I know this may sound like a random gift but his thought process was VERY sweet- He wanted to buy me something (that we could afford) that would last and grow with Averi so that when she is older she will know that that was the first mothers day present she got mommy... how sweet!


We had church that morning where we participated in parent dedication, Averi had a special dress that Meemom bought her, it, ofcourse, was HUGE! In the parent dedication Dr. Cook prayed for all of the families with new babies and challenged us to raise our children up in the ways of the Lord. This is something Kev and I take very seriously. We pray that God will give us guidance as we raise Averi and that she will come to know the Lord at a young age... We also pray that the lives Kev and I live will reflect Christ living within us both so that Averi will want to know God too.


Please pray with us that Averi will know God at a young age, that we will reflect Christ in our lives to her and that God will continue to strengthen Kevin and mines marriage and guide us in parenthood!
