A Blessed Girl

So if you didn't get enough pictures here are a bunch from Sunday's blessing. And for those inquiring to know about the dude in the background in my last post... that's our one and only BIL Jordan! You should have seen how hard Jared was laughing when he saw that picture.

Now back to the original topic...

This past Sunday morning was blessed by her father. We have so many good friends, and people who I genuinely love in our ward "family" that I really wanted to share that experience with them too. They know the trials we've been through over the last year and I was so happy that we could share this happy day with them. I was able to hold Kylie in my lap while her dad, grandpas, uncles, and favorite cousins laid their hands on her head and gave her a name and a blessing. It was absolutely beautiful and I couldn't help but cry through most of it. We are truly blessed to have Kylie with our family.

I am so grateful to have a loving Heavenly Father that would answer our prayers, and also the prayers of our most favorite Abbie. Our little girl is loved by so many people and will always be. This beautiful little girl has affected so many lives over the past year and a half for the better. In her blessing a statement was made… "From your birth you have been the means of bringing souls to Christ and will continue to bring souls to Christ throughout your life."

I truly feel honored to be her mother and love that she is absolutely adored and cherished by her father. She has truly brought joy to our family like no one else could ever have. Kylie, thank you for making such a difference in so many lives. We love you SO MUCH!!!

I LOVE all of the cute pictures you got of the happy family of three. You both seem so happy and Kylie seems thrilled. Her dress is so beautiful. I am smiling from ear to ear just thinking that there was a day when we didn't know if this would even be happening for you guys. That day is FINALLY here and it looks like it was a perfect day. So happy for you guys!
