BY GOD'S GRACE, MAY OUR FAMILY TREE BEAR GOOD FRUIT AS WE GROW TO KNOW & LOVE HIM MORE EACH DAY.

NOVA


She's kind, gentle, sweet, obedient, diligent, shy, tidy, careful, miniature, happy, sensitive, an easy little sister. She's been amazing with Noble (Nobos) and India (Indis) and she shows concern for them beyond her years.


As we've poured our heart and soul into our newest family members lately, I've felt a strong inclination to carve out special time with each of my children, each day and night. I miss them. It's not unlike the way I've missed them each time I've had a new baby. In fact, it's quite the same. I've felt this way before, and I remember how it all resolves. Nonetheless, I'm focusing extra special on each beloved child God's blessed me with and I find myself deeply grateful.

Today, I'm celebrating my little Nova as I ponder our days thus far together, thankful for each one. Nova has been one of the easiest children to raise through the early years. Her sweet little spirit is precious and tends to cause others to desire to care for her. But, she can do it herself, just so you know. :) She's quite capable and I've never seen such a small person make a bed so well in my life!

Thank you, Lord, for my Nova, my tiny little shining star. Thank you for blessing my life with this sweetheart of a child. Thank you for the opportunity to raise her up to know and love you. Please guide us as we cherish her all the days of our lives, showing her with your love how precious she is. May she know your love and share your love with others as she grows and shines for you.

"And those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the sky above; and those who turn many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever."
Daniel 12:3

"Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven."
Matthew 5:16
