4 generations

Luke,

This weekend you met your great grandma from the Adams side. This summer you were fortunate enough to meet your great grandparents from the Jordan side. How blessed you are to still have these amazing people around so you can get to know them. I was never able to meet my great grandparents as they were gone before I was born. Unfortunately for us, not all mine and Dad's grandparents are still around, but I know how much they would've loved you and spoiled you rotten. You'll know what I mean as you grow up and see what your grandparents do for you! What a wonderful family to be a part of, and what a priceless addition you are!

All my love,

Mom

Luke,

You are destined to be a Red Raider! One of Meme and Poppy's very close friends made you your Red Raider Express rocker! Rex is so talented and we are so touched that he spent all the time and effort on making this for you. He is a sweet man and you are going to love him. Dad can't wait for the first Tech game so you guys can watch it together. :) Good thing you look so handsome in red and black. :)

All my love,

Mom

Luke,

This weekend we took you swimming at Meme and Poppy's house. You LOVED it! Dad and I knew how much you liked bath time so we figured you would like the pool, we just didn't know how much! Your cousin Megan is a little fish and I have a feeling next summer she is going to have some company in the pool. We will get you into swim lessons as soon as you are old enough so you can continue in your love for the water! :) It's so fun to be a part of all your firsts.

All my love,

Mom

Luke,

It's amazing how much you've grown in so little time! You've started laughing! It is the SWEETEST sound in the whole world. Your whole face lights up when you smile, even your eyes smile. I think you get that from Minnie, her eyes smile too, that way we know how genuine you both are. What a beautiful quality to have. Dad and I video taped you laughing and as soon as I figure it out, I'll post it here so one day you can see it too.

All my love,

Mom

Luke,


The past three months I have been blessed to stay home with you everyday! I can't believe how fast the time has flown by. This week, I will return to work and you will be staying with Bradie. You are going to love her just as much as I do. She is an amazing mother and friend and I'm blessed to have her in my life. She has two daughters who will keep you entertained! Never a dull moment with the Vera's. Of course, I'm only a phone call away and will be wherever you need me whenever! Dropping you off the first day was really hard, but with Bradie's support and your smile, I knew I was doing what was best for our family at this time. It was the first of many first's and you handled it way better than I did. :)





All my love,


Mom

Luke,

Since your arrival, you have blessed our lives in ways we have never thought possible. How were we to know we were missing out on so much until you came. From the moment I saw you, my life changed, of all the "titles" I've had before your arrival, (wife, sister, daughter, daughter-in-law, designer, aunt, etc.) at that very moment, mom was the title I was most proud of. I can't wait to see how your life unfolds. I pray you follow God and his will, and that God will use Taylor and I to raise you in his prescence. One day I will tell you the story of the day you arrived, but for now all I can think about is the overwhemling joy you bring to life.

All my love,

Mom
