Birthday festivities for Aaron
Happy Birthday Aaron
It is hard to believe that one year ago today Aaron Isaac was born into our family! The year just seemed to fly by.
We have had such a fun week celebrating his birthday, but today on his actual birthday, Jay and I took time to remember and reflect on what a blessing Aaron has been to us and our family. And most of all we recalled how good God was to us those first few weeks of Aaron's life...how faithful He was, how much strength He equipped us with as we endured what seemed to us like a nightmare, how powerful prayer can be and that amazing sense of peace in the midst of a storm.
Aaron is a happy, mellow, affectionate, chubby little guy and has added so much joy to our family. We are truly blessed! What a difference a year makes.

Precious Emmie moment
We're stopped at a red light today at the corner of an intersection. All of a sudden Emmie asks from the back seat, "Mom, how do they know my name?"
I have no idea what she is talking about.
This is how the conversation progressed:
Mom: Who knows your name?
Emmie: That building! See Mom. E-M-M-I-E, that is my name, Emmie.
Mom: Oh wow babe! So that building knows your name?
Emmie: Yes Mommy. It knows my name.
Mom: That is amazing Em. So cool.
Emmie: So many buildings know my name Mommy. (said in a very bragging manner)
**It was a Coldwell Banker building, which of course contains two letter E's, which Emmie always assumes spells out her entire name on any sign or building. I just love these precious moments. I wish I had been blogging for the past ten years to have documented them all. Priceless!
