TWJ - Birthdays & Bye-Byes

09 February 2016

What a fun week of celebrating JANE! We are so grateful for her life and for the gift that she is to our family.


She even got to celebrate with one of her best buddies, Luke, surrounded by friends and family who love them both so much.




Happy Birthday, Jane! Here's to many more full and joyous years.

And so this one-year milestone brings us to the end of our Tuesdays with Jane... Tuesdays aren't going anywhere, of course, and Jane may still make an internet appearance from time to time. But for now, consider this our official "bye-bye." Thank you for sharing this special year with us.

ONE!

Watching this year pass by in a two minute highlight video is about how it feels to me. Where has the time gone, and how in the world do we have a "so big" ONE year old?!



Jane Elizabeth, today we celebrate the precious gift of one year with YOU! You have brought us so much joy, and we thank God for the privilege of being your parents. The other night you were playing on the living room floor, and your daddy looked at me and said, "Can you believe that just one year ago we didn't know her?!" We can hardly remember life without you, and we'd certainly never wish to go back.


I think this last picture expresses so much of your personality-- thoughtful, observant, careful, feminine, and so, so sweet. I can already tell I'm going to look up to you.

Happy 1st Birthday, Janie Bear. So glad you're ours!

P.S. Also glad to be done with those stickers... goodness, girl, you've outsmarted us again!
