Happy 1st Birthday, Maddox!

I can't believe our grandson Maddox is one year old today!
It seems like just yesterday we brought him home from the hospital ...

I still think of him as our little miracle baby.

He is the epitome of a healthy baby ... and is all BOY!

He skipped crawling and gets around by spinning like a little top (more like a little tornado, actually), and is into everything these days.

He loves to play and explore his new world since he became "mobile," and keeps us all on our toes trying to keep up with him. Doesn't he look mischievous in this picture!

Happy Birthday, Little One ...

This is Maddox's big sister Avery Grace on her first day of school as a second grader ...

Thank you, Lord, for these two little ones ...
What a blessing they are in our lives.

Please watch over them and keep them from harm. Help us to teach them of You and your Love for them, and let their lives be graced with all things that are good. Amen.

Happy birthday little Maddox. Wow, it does seem like you just brought him home. But a year is now only a few days. :) Or so it seems.
Miss Avery Grace is looking like such a lovely young lady. Hard to believe she's entering the second grade. Don't blink.....you'll miss something.

Janie,

These two little ones ...

How time goes, how it fleets away, and she's standing there in a pink flowered dress, so grown up and tall and beautiful.

And a YEAR!!! Just yesterday I was marveling at those wee fingers and toes and that sweet face so fresh and new.

I echo your prayer---for all our children.
