A POST FROM THE MOM
Well I've been slacking on posting, so Mark took over for me for a while. Wow it has been one amazing and crazy emotional week! I don't even know where to start. I can't believe we have a baby! It's still sinking in, and it's a lil scary! When she is in my arms I'm so happy and I can't believe that Heavenly Father has blessed us with such a beautiful little angel, but when she is asleep is when my mind starts thinking WAY too much. All those thoughts that make me think I'm not capable of being a mom or that I really have no idea what I'm doing. It's funny how Satan works. He's knows our weaknesses and he really pushes the right buttons! Never the less, I know the Lord is on my side and I see his hand in everything. Lenora is such a blessing in my life. Everytime I look at her I am amazed at how much love I have for her. Her sweet spirit warms our home and it is so nice to have her in our little family. She was named after her Great Grandmother (my Grandmother) Lenora Parkinson. (Doc's wife for those of you who know him from Maglebys). If she is anything like her Great Grandmother, she will be a blessing to all those who know her, and known for her service and love for others.

What a cutie! She's got beautiful skin and I love her hair and those eyes...definetly going to be a heart breaker...congrats on being a mom! You'll do great and don't doubt that for a second. It's overwhelming to everyone at first but if I can do it you sure can! Max wants to meet Lenora...we'll have to get together when things calm down a little for you guys...maybe let us know when you are blessing her. We live right next to the church you guys go to...we are at 1 though not 11.

Jody, you will be an amazing Mom and Lenora is lucky to have ya :) I remember clearly being home my first week with Kylee and my mind racing so many different places.
