Last night the ladies of our church threw us a baby shower after service. It was great times and we were oh so blessed again with lots of gifts for baby Wells! Here are a few pics of what we got along with a picture of the adorable cakes and my mothers blessing necklace. Kim, a friend took pics with her camera, so there will be more to come once I get a copy from her. I am just in awe of all the things we have gotten thus far!
Also, just a little story behind the necklace....every shower I have been to for ladies of our church they do this at them. But there is a bowl of beads and every one takes a bead. Then each person will say something to the mother, whether it be advice, a blessing over her or just words of encouragement. Then their bead is passed to one person who is makes the necklace with all the beads from everyone. After everyone has gone then the mother has hands laid upon her and prayers are said for her, the baby, the father and whatever the person feels the Lord telling them to say. So this necklace truly is special to me and not only are all the gifts a blessing but the words spoken over me has opened doors and revealed things to me that I never thought of myself as. (sorry if that does not make sense - kinda hard to explain while trying to keep this short!)
Hope you enjoy these few pictures and we will post more when I receive them from Kim!
