Mother's Day & Baby Dedication

On this Mother's Day, I celebrated for the first time as a mother of two! I am so very thankful for my beautiful children. I look at them often and wonder how I have been so blessed. The Lord has entrusted me to love and guide them, and I pray everyday that I am pleasing Him.

What a honor and privilege.

It was not only Mother's Day, it was Luke's dedication at church. Blake and I, as parents, dedicated ourselves to raising our son up to know and glorify the Lord. It was sweet to be with all the other families who had welcomed babies into their family recently.

Layton was very wiggly up on stage, I thought he was going to get down and run away! It was funny to everyone, but us! In retrospect, I'm sure I will laugh at this moment years down the road, but it will take some time. :)

and last year, 5 weeks pregnant with Luke.
Amazing what can change in one year! :)
We feel so grateful to have him in our family, I never knew it could be so sweet!

What an important celebration and on Mother's Day! Layton and Luke are so cute. Love the monogrammed romper! I know what you mean about everyone thinking your 2 year old is funny when you're ready to crawl under your seat! Ha! We will probably look back on those moments and laugh.
