I am scared. 

Can I protect you?

Will you be bright?

Will you be happy?

Will you be strong or gentle?

Will you be mine?

I will be yours.

You will be gentle and strong.

You will bring joy to all those around you.

You will bring light to the world.

I will protect you.

Don’t be afraid.

Your mom will teach you some things.  I will teach you others. 

I know I knew you before.  I know you taught me before I came here.  You will continue to teach me once you join me here. 

I know you’ve been anxious to come.  I know because every time I prayed about you God told me.  We are ready for you.

I will do my best to support you always.  I will do my best to shield you from the world.

Can I ever be ready for the responsibility of your life?

You’re coming into a scary world.  The world needs you now, more than ever.  Be kind.  Be gentle.  Be strong. 

It’s the year 2020.  The world needs you desperately.  Don’t hold back.  Give your all.  Shine bright.

I love you already.

My girl.  Our girl.

      We’re excited to share her with the world. We’re so lucky to have two families that will love her endlessly. We have to actively try to keep from spoiling her too much between all the love she’ll be getting.

    “Can I ever be ready for the responsibility of your life?” As a parent we spend our entire life being ready for the responsibility! Fortunately you and Elisabeth have great examples in your Earthly and Heavenly parents. Hold on tight to your Faith. Treasure the moments and the memories. I am so happy for you both. You’ll be wonderful parents!
