A Very Special Day






So yesterday was a very special day for our family. Not only was it our 2 year anniversary, but Emma was also blessed. It was so amazing to see how far we have come in the past two years and our life seemed to come full circle. Emma's blessing was beautiful and she was promised some wonderful blessings from her Father in Heaven. Mike's mom was coming out this way to do a presentation at a home schooling conference and we were lucky enough to have her stop by Ohio for about a week. It has been nice having her here and she was able to be there for Emma's blessing. We sure missed having the rest of our family there, but it turned out to be a very nice day. Emma was also very lucky to have her Grandma Pierce make her blessing dress. She will have it as a very special keepsake. I think my mom did a wonderful job. The dress was so beautiful.

Last night Mike and I were looking through our journals and reading some entries from when we were dating and first married. It is amazing to see what we have learned in the past two years and how the Lord has truly had his hand in our lives. We know we have been blessed and are so grateful.

I'm glad you had such a wonderful day and that Mike's mom was able to share it with you. That's neat it coincided with your anniversary. Emma looks beautiful. I'm glad mom was able to make the dress, that will be a great keepsake. And, I love how you took a picture of Emma in it with the skirt flared out because it showed the pretty detail and transparent material she used. I know she's excited to see the picture of her in the dress ;-)
