We are so honored!

Andy and I have been asked to do something really special. We have been asked to be Godparents to little Miss Sloan Joy. What an honor! We are both very excited. What's even more exciting for me, is that I truly feel that this sweet baby girl has something very special about her. Just look at that adorable face...don't you just want to eat her up!!!


Janelle was only about 4 months pregnant when Joy passed away, Sloan wasn't able to meet her Nana (Joy) here on this earthly world, however I feel very strongly that they have already connected. I think that somehow, and in someway, Joy was able to give some very special gifts to Sloan. From very early on, I have seen Joy in Sloan. It's a certain look Sloan gives me, and I'm not sure if anyone else sees it, but I do...and I know it's Joy! I can't wait to see what this sweet baby girl does in her life and to be able to share and experience it with her. She will do amazing things!

As Janelle and I were talking about the dedication service, I went up and pulled Maggie's dress that she was dedicated in and asked if she would want to use it for Sloan. We both agreed how special it would be and that maybe we could start a new tradition that our girls could then pass on to their own girls someday. (I'm searching for a picture of the dress...I'll post it when I find one.)

Another tradition is Aunt Jodi's amazing cookies...a must have at any special gathering...These were the cookies she made at Maggie's dedication.


Thanks guys for asking us to be Sloan's Godparents...we are delighted and can't wait to share her faith journey with her!
