Love Mom: A new cousin to be born

This weekend we had a scare that sweet baby Haisten was about to arrive. I went into panic mode because he is not suppose to make he debut appearance until November ~~and Katie has not had her shower yet so his aunt t did not have his gift yet.~~ I never knew how fast I could fall in love , but I, we, were ready to love on this sweet boy as soon as he got here! Thankfully, Katie and Haisten do not get to celebrate their birthdays together. Next to being a daughter of Christ, wife and mom, being an aunt is my next biggest blessing! I wish so much to have all my nieces and nephews closer so I could spend more time with them..after all, I have the best aunts ever who inspire me to be just like them!! It's a blessing to know just because you're not someone's parent you can still have a huge impact on ones life.. I hope I'm the best Aunt T ~~get it like auntie just aunt t~~ ever! One thing I want our girls to experience is the strong bond cousins have together...I have to say all my nieces and nephews have wonderful parents, and I know without a doubt, that Katie and Daniel will be wonderful parents... Sorry Katie but ~~I can't wait to torture Daniel like he has me with our girls!~~ The one verse I would tell the new parents to be is 1 Samuel 1:27-28 " I prayed for this child, and The Lord has granted me what I asked of him. so now I give him to The Lord . For his whole life he will be given to The Lord."

Since this little angel gave us a early case of the butterflies here is a sneak peak of the love we have for this baby already

"Children are a gift from The Lord; They are a reward from him" Psalm127:3

Happy Birthday Katie ~~don't kill me for putting this on here~~

Haisten's cousins are so ready for him to get here

Especially this sweet daughter of mine... She decided he would have a lot of girls to love throughout his life so she wanted to be the first one to write him a note...and it goes like this
