Yes, I’m over a month late on this post!  But… at least I’m posting right?

Our dear Katherine Anya turned 6 on March 6th.  While I love and enjoy the birthdays of all our kids, Katherine’s always brings to mind memories of trauma that we experienced a year and half before she was born.  And yet, her birth is a reminder of God’s amazing grace, love and faithfulness after such a trying and emotional time for our family.

We love this little girl that God entrusted to us to raise in the love and admonition of the Lord.  She’s feisty, smart, loves learning (says her favorite subject is math) and adventurous.  She’s learning to ride her bike and roller blade before her siblings learned.  Katherine enjoys our church fellowship, reading along in her bible during our daily bible time and making gifts to give to others.

Happy Birthday sweet girl!  We love you!

Katherine got into the chalk!
