Emma Week Three



  











The countless little moments like those in the video below just melt me. They are moments I will always treasure beyond what my words will every be able to communicate...















Full of wonder at the great big world outside!


Listening to Mama tell her about this tree where Papa proposed. 







The video below is a little clip of the first time I played violin for Emma. 

The words of this hymn echo in our hearts as our prayer for our sweet little three week old...

"...Thou my best Thought, by day or by night
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light

 ...Thou my great Father, I Thy true son
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one 

...Thou and Thou only, first in my heart
High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art 

...Heart of my own heart, whate’er befall
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all."











Emma Week Two




Meeting Aunt Melody :)








The Nursing basket Josh fixed up for me so I could everything near me


Lillies from Melody




Getting to smell daffodils for the first time!


Meeting Auntie Em and Uncle Fred :)














Sweet late night snuggles




The freshly plowed fields around Cedarhaven. The air was full of the rich fragrance of the newly turned earth and the daffodils floating on the breeze. What a day to get to be outside!







Rocking chair time with Papa at Cedarhaven 















 Josh stopped on his way home from work at a little bakery in Norfolk because he knew how much I had wanted an apple fritter that week. So he found the best apple danish in norfolk and brought it home :) :)
