One of Our Favorite Gifts!!!


Five years ago on December 22, 2003, God gave us our beautiful baby girl. She has been such a wonderful gift. She has given us much joy and laughter in her five years. She has also made sure that we continue to lean on the Lord. Our favorite memory of her this year is her increasing interest in learning more about the gospel. This past year someone put up a cross on a vacant lot that we pass almost everyday when we leave the house. Everytime we pass it she gets so excited and says, "Daddy (mommy) ask me cross words?" She loves for us to ask her questions about the gospel. We are grateful for the reminder we pass often to remind us to teach our little girl the most important thing that could ever be taught. The Lord as used this and we have seen great change in our little girl. We have seen God opening her eyes to her sin and His awesome sacrifice for it! Happy Birthday, JellyBean!!!! We love you!!!
