march always brings with it a wide range of emotions and memories for me...our firstborn arriving so very and unexpectedly early after 2 weeks of bed rest, a subsequent month long stay in the NICU, then easter weekend...when we brought home this tiny bundle not even 5 lbs yet.
through that experience and the 7 years that have followed, our ben david has been a constant reminder to us of the lord's lovingkindness, faithfulness and great mercy.
ben david is truly a "man after god's own heart."
his sensitive spirit, loving demeanor, tender heart, patience, desire to please, kind and gentle nature are humbling to me as a mom. i believe with all of my heart he is destined to do great things for the kingdom of god.
our sweet ben david...we love you so much!!
HAPPY 7TH BIRTHDAY!!!
yummy chocolate donuts for breakfast...thank you daddy!!
of course we celebrated "cousin-style" over the weekend with a fun joint birthday party with drew who just turned 9!!! there was some "pin the tail on ben david and drew"
