We are excited to announce that after many years of prayers, tears and fears that Jason and I were able to participate in the Child & Parent dedication at our church, with our beautiful blessing, Eliana Grace, on April 13, 2008. We committed to raise her according to God's word and for His purpose. We promised to share Christ with her and call her to follow us as we follow Christ. The life verse that we chose for her was Romans 12:12, "Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer."
Thankfully, she was a gem, she decided that she didn't want to eat that morning before church. I was a little panicked, this would mean that she would be going a long time without food and that she would decide that the time to eat was during the dedication. Luckily that wasn't the case and she did great. Although, Jason and I could hear her little tummy growling.
