As the name of my blog indicates, I spend a lot of time thinking about home. Of course, my Heavenly Home is the one that is eternal, so that’s where I need to lay up my treasures, and that’s the one I’m striving for. But in the meantime, I have been given this tiny piece of the here-and-now—this home on the edge of town, this family, this neighborhood—in which to serve Him. And, though this is in the earthly realm, I want the things that happen here to be investments in the Heavenly realm.

Sunday Snapshots: A Baby Shower
Yesterday, the ladies of our family honored my beautiful niece, Amy, with a baby shower.
But the guest of honor was upstaged by her darling daughter Isabel who delighted us all...
...and also by Frank who really wanted those ribbons. Really. He did.
And now we excitedly await the arrival of the new little one! Soon...very soon...
I love it when a toddler steals the show. They are so funny and so charming and just make everyone giggle with their cuteness. Exciting times for your family!
Judging from the pink lanterns and gift wrap, can we assume it is a baby girl? Wishing your niece and your family all the best! Cupcakes look awesome, too. Did 1-800-katibakes make them? ;-). xo
How sweet that wee girlie is! She'll be a big sister!
ReplyDeleteSweet of you to host a shower for her!
