{11 months & a dedication}

I am so behind! Audrey is going to be one year old in nine days!  I thought I’d better get this up before it was too late.  Today was actually a really special day for us and for Audrey. We had her dedicated at our church with many friends and family there. Scott and I wrote out vows to Audrey about the kind of parents we aspire to be. It was wonderful to have our amazing support system there to share this precious day with us and pray over Audrey. Both the girls were a little restless, but overall it went great. Thank you again each person that came today! We love you all.  This is the prayer that I prayed for Audrey today, and plan to pray it for her many more times throughout her life. Most of it is from The Power of a Praying Parent, by Stormie Omartian.

“May Audrey not be a follower of anyone but You, but may she be a leader of people into your kingdom. Help her to grow into a complete understanding of her authority in Jesus, while retaining a submissive, gentle and humble spirit.  May the fruit of the Spirit, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness and self control grow in her daily. May she find her identity in You, view herself as your instrument and know that she is complete in You. Please give her vision for her life when setting goals and a sense of purpose about what you’ve called her to do. May she be convinced that Your thoughts toward her are of love and peace.”

Here is Audrey at 11 months, I think she is starting to look more like her daddy. :)
