We ARE SO BLESSED!

Baby So Sweet

Nevaeh at birth

I know the photo is a little blurry, but I am told that this was a cell phone picture that was taken of Nevaeh right after she was born and swaddled. The picture was taken by Nevaeh's maternal grandmother and sent in a picture text message to Nevaeh's paternal grandmother. This was the only photo that Amy had of Nevaeh. Amy is Nevaeh's biological paternal grandmother. When Amy found out that I was putting a baby book together for Nevaeh, she brought this picture to a visit and gave it to me. I thought it was a very kind jesture. Amy also brought pictures of Nevaeh's birth father so that I could put a couple of them in Nevaeh's baby book as well.
Wow! So much has happened in so little time, but God has been with us in an incredible way. So many specifics get lost in the system, creating holes in a story that leave it confusing and unclear. In the past couple of weeks, Mark and I have been able to spend time with Amy (Nevaeh's paternal grandmother) and Amy's husband, John. We let John and Amy tell us their side of "the story." It gave us a better picture of the situation. We have been pleasantly interacting and getting along well. While we as yet still have no definite direction, we are believing that God intends for ALL of us to be a part of Nevaeh's life. God apparently wants John and Amy a part of our lives and the Fultzes a part of John and Amy's life. Nevaeh calls her grandmother "Nana" and John, "Poppa.".
Please pray for Nevaeh. She doesn't understand what is happening and just has to do what she is told to do and go where she is made to go.
Her favorite song right now is "Away In A Manger." She likes to have one of us sing it and let off the last word of each phrase so that she can put it in. She loves the Christmas decorations and likes riding in the car to see the "pitty ites!" She is a precious little angel and I know that God has something special intended for her life.
*chuckle* As I write, she is singing, "Where is my hairbrush?"
If you were here she would wish you, "Mooey Kippuss!"
