Ma Ma Mother's Day

{Hey friends - this is your LAST CHANCE 

to send me your email address before 

my blog goes private on Monday! Don't forget!!}

Edited to add: Jack also moved up in his Sunday school class on Mother's Day!! Ahhh!! I went to take him to the "Lambs" room and they said that because he's crawling and getting around so much, he would have much more fun in the "Turtles" class! It was a big day!

On Mother's Day, our church had a Baby Dedication service! It was so precious to see 

10 sweet babies dedicated to the Lord in front of our church family. 

We promised to the Lord and to Jack that we would bring him up in the "nurture and the admonition of the Lord" -Ephesians 6:4. The Message translation of this verse says "Take them by the hand and lead them in the way of the Master." The New Living Translation of this verse says "...Bring them up with the discipline and instruction that comes from the Lord."

We are so blessed to be Jack's parents and we couldn't be more humbled to take on the task of leading him to the Master. This is my prayer for our sweet boy every day.

We are in the middle, a little to the left.

My parents, Nick, Mamaw, Vanessa, Jason's parents, Jessica, the Cox's, the Lawhorn's, the Brannan's and Bonnie all came to cheer us on and watch baby Jack kickin' his sweet little legs up there. Then we went to Ben & Patricia's house to have lunch - it was such a wonderful FIRST Mother's Day!

So what did I get for Mother's Day?? Well, on the Wednesday night before Mother's Day, I was feeding Jack his dinner. He was busy watching the birds out on our bird feeder, when all of a sudden he started saying "Mmmmm! Mmmma! Ma!" 

I FREAKED OUT!!! I was so excited! The BEST Mother's Day present... E.V.E.R. 

And Jack's daddy got me a massage. Bless you, Jack's daddy. :)
