Family Dedication and Mother's Day

Well, as you can see I am a little behind. It seems like Mother's Day was two weeks ago! Matt and I have both been VERY busy. I have been keeping up with 17 1st graders, an almost 5-month-old, and trying to wrap up things at school! In addition to his daily job, Matt has been doing some contract work inspecting playgrounds.

Last Sunday, May 8, was not only Mother's Day but family dedication at our church. It was a very special day for our little family.
We committed to raising Avery in a godly home. We picked this as her life verse:

"For this reason also, since the day we heard this, we haven't stopped praying for you. We are asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, so that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to Him and growing in the knowledge of God." Colossians 1:9-10

Sorry, no pictures this time. They didn't turn out that great!

Matt and Avery made me a special 1st Mother's Day gift. We have somehow misplaced Avery's footprints from the hospital. It makes me SO sad. Surely they are here somewhere! Anyway, they "recreated" her footprints. Wasn't that just the sweetest thing?!
