Pigtails :)

 Miss Katherine decided to get a little creative with Emmy's hair today and gave her.....her very first pigtails! She had just enough hair to put up and boy did she look cute! Katherine sent Josh and I the second picture and then I took this first one when we got home. I don't think Emmy even noticed them until dinner tonight, and then, "Whoosh", they were gone! :)

 

 

 

Outside!!!

The past two days it was so nice outside! We couldn't wait to let Emmy run around in the backyard, and boy did she run! She LOVES being outside! We had so much fun and it gave us just a glimpse of what great times are awaiting us this Spring and Summer! We can't wait!! :)

Held

"This is what it means to be held.
How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life and you survive.
This is what it is to be loved.
And to know that the promise was that when everything fell, we'd be held." 
-Natalie Grant "Held"

It's been a little while since I've posted because the last few weeks have been pretty hard. Josh and I lost another baby on February 12. We are saddened by the reality of another loss but hopeful in God's plan for our future....whatever it might hold. After our first loss, we were so completely blessed by the birth of our Emily Jane, who has changed our world forever. We are so thankful for her, what a precious gift she is to us. And as we stand here again we know, we will get through this....stronger than ever. That doesn't mean it still doesn't hurt or that it isn't hard. But we will hang on tightly to the Lord and to each other...enjoying each and every day we have together.
