Baby Dedication

Sunday, November 9th, we particpated in Baby/Family Dedication at church. Ella Grace slept so peacefully all the way through. I was afraid to move her off my shoulder...afraid she'd wake up and give us a cry. What a beautiful moment for Michael and I .... to show our beautiful blessings to the world and say we want to raise them in a Christian home. We had some special guests...our fanclub...in the pew that day. My brother and sister-in-law came into town (from Colorado), my step-dad came from Cookeville...and Michael's mom, aunt and uncle were also there. It's one of those times that makes me miss my mom terribly. I know she would have been so proud! She would have dootted over her grand-daughters cute dresses....given me a compliment over my outfit becuase she would have known how anxious I get about looking nice...she would have smiled so big when the families were asked to stand up to be acknowledged by the congregation. She's been gone for almost two years and it still feels like yesterday...
