“For this child I prayed…”

Today, Asher and I had lunch with my friend, Kim and her brand-new baby, Logan. Logan is just 7 weeks old and SO precious! He slept the whole time we ate and Asher sat in the high chair and ate fistfuls of cheerios. :)

Kim and I taught together at HCS and had a special bond as we both waited (and waited) to be blessed with babies. She was a great support to me, and I’m SO thankful that we’re both happily at home with our little boys this year! Kim and her husband were pretty far into the adoption process when they found out they were expecting (!!) so they’ll complete their adoption when Logan gets a little bit older! As a result of their pending African adoption they did an African-themed nursery, so when I found some cute safari-looking fabric I decided to attempt to make a baby blanket for their new little boy…

When I showed Chris he thought it was for Asher so I decided to make a second one (a little bit smaller) for Asher too.

It was fun to get out and see a friend and meet her sweet little boy; and even more special to think of the faithfulness of our Lord in these two precious faces…
