Our sweet baby girl was born yesterday morning just before 8:00am. She was 10.4 ounces and 9 3/4 inches long. We appreciate your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. We know that she is in heaven with Jesus, and being loved on by her Grandma & Grandpa W, and her Granny & Pop. But oh, how we long to love on her, too. We look forward to the day when we have that precious opportunity, we just have to wait longer than we expected. Here's the beautiful profile picture that we saw for the first time in December.
The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.~Psalm 34:18
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
~Psalm 147:3
Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, "The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him." The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD. Though he brings grief, he will show compassion, so great is his unfailing love.
~Lamentations 3:22-26, 32
