Love me some babies

One of the highlights of my life is the friendship I have with my sweet friend Elizabeth. She and her family bring my life so much joy.

Elizabeth and I once worked together in the church. We walked together every day, shed tears and joys on those long walks, ran (errr...walked) the Country Music 1/2 Marathon together, and shared an office where she got to know full well my...ah-hem...behaviors and nuances.

She became and still is one of my very best friends.

In the course of our friendship, she and her husband went through IVF (in vitro fertilization). It was a painful, nerve-wracking process for her, but nonetheless, we prayed God would give her and her husband babies.

He answered...as He always does. She became pregnant with two precious little boys, Hudson and Brayden. And I've prayed over them since.

Now, they're one year and almost three months old. I'm so incredibly grateful that Jesus let me share so many moments of that experience with my friend. And I'm thankful I get to watch them grow to know and love Him.

I love those babies so much. How could you resist their little smiles and laughs?
