...and my new life begins!






Wow! At 6:49 on Wednesday, February 18th everything changed when Ellie Sue Emory came into this world! What a tremendous blessing from the Lord she is. With that blessing, however, comes great responsibility to raise her up teaching her about her Heavenly Father's great love for her and the whole world. This is a sobering but very worthwhile endeavor, one that can only be attempted because of the Lord's grace and mercies that are new every morning. From here on out this is our primary focus and everything else fades into the background. These are just a few of the ramblings coming from an excited, but somewhat tired new mom early in the morning! Here are a few pictures for now..I'll post about my labor story later.
