Two Years, 6 days and then...

"For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well. My frame was not hidden from You, When I was made in secret, And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, The days fashioned for me, When as yet there were none of them. How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them! If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand; When I awake, I am still with You." Psalm 139: 13-18

This is me on my birth day over two years ago. I was so tiny.

One year later mom and dad let me dig into some cake. What a fabulous day that was. I was much bigger, but then one year later...

I am a ginormous two year old with a brand new...

baby brother. Isn't he sweet. And so tiny just like I was.

His name is Thomas Andrew Davis, but I refer to him as "Baby Thomas." I plan on calling him that for the rest of his life even when he is taller than I am.
I just love his little toes. Can you believe how small he is?!

And I love smothering him in kisses!!!

I am getting better every day at being gentle with him. He is my sweet baby doll and I am thrilled to be a big sister. I think I will be pretty good at this job. I have been practicing with my babies for a long time.
He is pretty sleepy these days, but when he can manage to hold his eyes open for more than 15 minutes at a time, he will start writing his own blog so you can keep up with his side of the story.

Thanks for praying for my sweet baby brother. Our great big God gave him good healthy lungs and lots of hair and is sustaining him daily.

God bless you.
