welcome to the world, Eden JoAnna.

we just got back from ellensburg and meeting the newest addition to our awesome family. we're in love. she's beautiful and so much sweeter than words can explain. somehow this little girl, whom everyone expected was going to be a boy, came out with a shocking crop of bright blonde hair and a quiet, peaceful spirit. i love being an auntie to two little nieces, who i can tell are going to be such a joy together. plus, their names are even so cute to say together: ezri and eden! :) i'm excited to spoil two lil' blondies now!

i cried when i heard she was here, i cried when i learned that i'm sharing a middle-namesake with the grandmas (they are both Joanne and the capital A was for me!), and i cried when i saw her little glowing face. how special is that, to share a name with someone?! i love that! it was such an unexpected gift.

praise the LORD above for new life, new growth, new beginnings.
welcome to the world, eden.
