ELLIE JOY IS ONE!
Happy Happy Friday, friends!
I sure have missed y'all! We are finally living in our new house & getting all settled. SUCH A JOB! And with three kiddos. Goodness gracious!
Since we have been in between houses, we haven't had internet so I haven't been able to blog.
BUT …
Sunday, Ellie Joy turned ONE & I am here today to share all about it!!!
Eeeeeek!!
We celebrated her all weekend …
Sweetheart style!
And it couldn't have been sweeter!
My mother-in-love had her cake made ...
My sister made her smash cake …
And this girl LOVED it!!
Oh, it was just the best day celebrating her!
And on Sunday morning …
We woke up to a ONE year old!
WHAT!?!
How in the world did that happen!?
Oh my heart, that happy girl!
That afternoon, we had lunch & more cake because why not!?!
….
One year ago on Sunday, I finally got to hold my sweet rainbow baby. I can hardly believe it! The baby I prayed so hard for but was so afraid to try again for. One year! She brings so much joy to our family & we can't imagine life without her.
John 13:7 often comes to my mind when I think of our Itty Bitty girl …
"What I am doing you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand."
The heartache of losing RUTHIE BELLE was & is still very much real, but Ellie Joy has healed my heart so much this past year & I am so thankful for that!
Itty Bitty, you are loved by so many people!
You're so silly & keep us laughing.
Your big blue eyes just melt me!
And don't worry girlfriend, your hair is growing!
Always remember whose you are, sweet girl.
I love you more than you'll ever know!
xoxo
Mama
