My Wall of Love



As you can tell from browsing my facebook profile, pages you will note I love pictures and video. I even have a special wall where I hang "Special" pictures, drawings, or other projects created by my grandchildren. It's special to me and provides me memories of special days and occasions with my family. Well We just had another special day in the birth of my new granddaughter, Adalyn Malia Patterson. Adalyn came as no surprise but she did surprise us on the day she was born. During the pregnancy it was discovered that her mommy, Kristin, had a condition which prevented a natural birth and c-section was in order. The date was all set and we were prepared to go up on a certain date and come back several days later after everything had settled down. Then the condition cleared up and back to the original due date (estimated of course) but God decided he was ready to present his new creation to the world. That created a little excitement (even to the extent of not getting the name correct on a hurried phone call from our son). After sending our numerous emails with the incorrect name, we found our error (on facebook believe it or not) and tried to resend corrections all around. Anyway it was a blessed day and we are so excited to have the newest addition to our family.
Welcome to the world Adalyn. We have loved you even before you were born (Ps. 139:14 - I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well) but we love you even more now. We look forward watching you grow up and seeing what plan our Heavenly Father (For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jer. 29:11) has for you. A special plan that only "you" can fulfill. We will watch every day to see this blessed plan.

I love you Adalyn.
