We love Nora! Did you know that?? =)
On Sunday, May 2nd (her 1 month birthday!) she was given a name and blessing by Aaron. It was such a neat experience. I am very thankful for Aaron and the priesthood he holds to do so. I cried the whole time. (Big surprise!) It was so special to feel Heavenly Father's love for this little girl and how we, as her family, will help her become the woman she needs to be. After it was over, Aaron asked me what part made me cry...my response: the whole thing! That was my little girl up there! She is so special and such a blessing to us! WE LOVE HER!
We were fortunate to have lots of family come in town for it! Everyone knew it was a special time. To make it even more special, Nora's cousin Millie got blessed the day before. We made a fabulous weekend out of it with lots of visiting, baby holding, and EATING! These 2 girls are so loved by so many people! They have LOTS of excited grandparents and we love and appreciate ever minute it!! There's nothing better!
The girls looked so sweet in their dresses my mom made them. She worked long and hard on them and everyone was very impressed. =) Thanks Mom, you do a GREAT job!
Dang Nora is tall!!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you heard Nora's blessing...Millie was grunting too loud for me to hear!
Gorgeous Dresses!!! What is with the necklace?? Is that hawaiian thing?
ReplyDeleteLani! Your post had me crying too! Amazing what a sweet little girl you have. Thanks for sharing the pictures! We sooo wish we could have been there to help celebrate Nora's and Millie's very special days! I would have loved to see this little girl have that big guy wrapped around her little finger! You have been entrusted with her and the two of you will rear a worthy beautiful young lady! I sure hope the parents of a little boy are doing their part! Congrats!!!
