brian blessed our baby boy on easter sunday. he gave him a name and he blessed his little body, mind & spirit to grow & learn & love in all the ways our Heavenly Father would have him do. as i sat quietly and listened to the words of the blessing, i thought about how much our Heavenly Father loves little ollie. He knows him and wants what is best for him. and then i thought about how much our Heavenly Father loves brian & i. He sent little ollie to our family, and He trusts brian & i with the care and upbringing of His child. while oliver was blessed by his father, i was overwhelmed with a feeling, one that i am reminded of every time i look at my baby boy & my dear husband;
i am blessed.

ReplyDeleteParenthood is such a sacred responsibility. It's an overwhelming thought sometimes but in the same breath is really is such a blessing.
I'm glad you got to enjoy such a beautiful day!
