Today is a very special day! The birthday banner is hanging outside, the cake is in the oven, and the special birthday menu is ready to be prepared!
The only thing missing is our baby girl!
Birthday party plans should be in the making. Everyone is tuned up, ready to sing her her song. The balloons have been ordered and her flowers are as perfect as she is.
The only thing missing is our baby girl!
Oh how I wish this day was filled with the laughter of our Lila Rae. Having her here to celebrate her birthday is something we’ll never have. She will always be the missing link to our family. Physically.
But we know that she is with us in other ways.
She is our guardian angel that protects her sisters and brother. She is in the warm smile or laughter I receive from other babies. She is in the extra hug or “I love you Mommy” that I get from my girls or Whit. She is in the beauty ALL around us. She is always in our thoughts. On our minds. In our life. There isn’t a day that goes by she isn’t thought of.
Thank you God for this beautiful gift You so richly blessed us with. We will always treasure this day and the beauty, our Lila Rae, shared with us all.
Happy Birthday Lila Rae! We love you!
You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb
~ Psalm 139:13 from NLT
God is good….ALL the time,

Janie, I love the new banner at the top!!! The photo is gorgeous & I love how you turned it into the banner. I've tried it before but can never get it to turn out right. You'll have to share how you did it. Praying for you today & hoping you have a blessed day.
