Welcome Elizabeth!

“ We give you thanks, O LORD, with our whole hearts…We give thanks to your name for your steadfast love and your faithfulness, for you have exalted above all things your name and your word. On the day we called, you answered us; our strength of soul you increased.”

 


Psalm 138:1-3

Our Elizabeth Mae.
3 years waited. 2 weeks early. 1 family complete.

  3. Congratulations! I happened upon your blog because I was looking for the Cooks Illustrated fried chicken recipe (thank you for posting it!). I saw from other posts that you had been having tough times...so clicked Home to see how you are doing...happily to find you'd posted about Elizabeth's birth just a few hours earlier! How wonderful! May the Lord continue to bless your lovely family.
