"For this child I prayed"

This past week my friend Kristi told me about a picture she saw on Pinterest of a baby next to the scripture 1 Samuel 1:27 "For this child I prayed." I loved this idea, and well it fits perfect with our baby boy Asa.  Of course we prayed for both our boys but with Asa we prayed extra hard for, as he took a bit longer to come to our family.  Each time I look into his sweet little face I am reminded of how much my Heavenly Father loves and trust me to take care of one of his precious sons.  I know everything has a time and a season and I NOW know Asa came when the Lord saw fit for us.  Here is my take on this idea...

 I like the black and white...Darin likes it with color. :)

 Asa is now 2 months old and weighs 8lbs 2oz.

What a sweet little blessing.

Early Arrival...

 Our little peanut decided to make his debut 8 weeks early weighing in at 3 lbs 6 oz. We named him Asa.  That is pronounced Ay-sa or Ace-a.  Just wanted to clear that up since it seems to be missed pronounced more then I thought. :) Asa spent 3 weeks in the NICU I took these pictures a couple of days after he was released.  He weighed 4 lbs 3 oz. He was a lot like his big brother and wasn't real cooperative...sigh...I love them anyway!

Welcome to our crazy family baby Asa!
