Addie-Girl

I thank you, High God—you’re breathtaking!
Body and soul, I am marvelously made!
I worship in adoration—what a creation!
You know me inside and out,
you know every bone in my body;
You know exactly how I was made, bit by bit,
how I was sculpted from nothing into something.

Psalm 139, The Message

Look who is turning one… Sweet Addie GIRL!  We love you and your beautiful life.  You are fearfully and wonderfully made, given to US.  From nothing into more than just something…

The day you were born, a new piece of my heart was unwrapped.  Tears slowly fell when I saw you take your first breath, the moment I heard your first cry, the moment I felt your hand wrap around my finger.  And a new me was born.

The me that loves in a new way, the way that I too was fearfully and wonderfully made to be yours.  This God-mommy hood is the biggest gift I’ve ever been given aside from life itself.  Your life Addie-girl, is our prayer.  Your life Addie-girl, is our joy.  Your life Addie-girl, is a gift that we reopen everyday we see you smile, hear your trusting cries, your precious giggles, watch you crawl, anticipate your first steps, and hold your heart in ours…

Today is your day Addie-girl.  And we celebrate you.  The joy you bring us, the peace you give us, and the love we’d never felt before there was you.
