Allie's Dedication

"Behold, children are a gift of the Lord." Psalm 127:3
"For this child, I have prayed." 1 Samuel 1:27
"For you formed my inward parts; you wove me in my mother's womb." Psalm 139:13

For those of you who know our story, the bible verses above are soooo meaningful to us. Allie is truly a gift from God and everyday that we look at her we are reminded of how good God is. In the depths of sorrow, heartache, longing and fear, He shows Himself in the most incredible ways. Words cannot describe the love that we feel for our little princess and how much we want her to know the God who made her. So, we decided to dedicate her to the Lord at church and stand before our friends and family to make the promise to raise her in a Christian home. We know that life is going to continue to have its ups and downs but with God as the foundation of our lives, we know we can get through anything!
