A is for...




ASHER!


Guess you wouldn't have guessed that!


Asher gives me so much purpose. He's everything I want to be--beautiful, innocent, charming, and funny! He is truly a gleam of Heaven right here on Earth for Mark and me.


For those that don't know our story Asher was a bit of a surprise. We found out we were pregnant only 5 months after getting married and 4 days after closing on a house. You might think it's terrible to admit this, but I was somewhat horrified. We had so much to do before having kids! The Lord showed us differently. He blessed us with a gorgeous, healthy boy that my Daddy was absolutely in love with. If Asher had come along on OUR schedule we would have missed experiencing this with my Dad. Instead, God's timing was perfect! I can't imagine life without Asher now. He is my heart and soul on this Earth.

Just think how boring your life would be right now if you hadn't had Asher!

Isn't it neat how God works? He is quite a beautiful gift! Since it took us about 9 months to get pregnant, I think a suprise would be pretty neat! (though I'm hoping he'll be at least a year before getting a suprise like that!)
