Eli Changes More Everyday!!






This is Mommy my sister has been adding stuff on here. And thank you sister!! I have not had much time to get online. I have been having too much fun being Eli's Mommy. I wanted to add some more pictures. I take a lot of pictures of Eli cause he seems to look cute in so many ways and positions and outfits. Daddy and I THANK THE LORD JESUS CHRIST for his beautiful blessing he has blessed us with in our precious baby boy. We are nothing without the Lord JESUS Christ!! We will never stop thanking him for all that he has done for us. We are spending all the time with Eli that we can. We can not get enough of him!! He is spoiled to Mommy and Daddy already. So enjoy the pictures and we will add more later. LOVE YOU ALL Mommy and Daddy and Eli.

Awh... Baby Days!

Thoughts from an Aunt

May you grow to be a Christian, who fears God and trusts him for strength, peace, and guidance. May you hold the Bible dear to your heart and cherish the truths of God's Word. May you sing songs and praises throughout your day that will bring you closer and closer to the Lord's will.

May you love your family. May you understand the importance of your parents, sister, grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins. May you appreciate all the relatives that love and support you. May you look to your parents for guidance and correction.

May you be a life-long learner, always acquiring more facts, figures, and information. May you be discerning and wise in your daily walk. May you develop high thinking skills and deep understanding of truth. May you love reading, writing, math, and the arts.

May you have fun all the days of your life. May you find joy and appreciate the beauty of nature. May you paint pictures, run through fields, hike mountains, rock on the front porch, jump in a pile of leaves, name a pet, hug a friend...

Know that you are loved (by many.)
Listen carefully (and be slow to speak.)
Love (through a heart full of Christ.)
Stand firm (in the truth, without stumbling.)

My prayer is that God accomplishes all these things in your life!



"Loving some special attention..."


"Looking good and taking it easy..."

"Boy do all these pictures wear me out. I think I will take another nap!"

...In a Name...

ELI
Usage: Jewish, English, the Bible

Other Scripts: עֵלִי (Hebrew)
Pronounced: EE-lie (English)


Means "ascension" in Hebrew. In the Old Testament he was the high priest of Israel and the teacher of Samuel.
Means "my God" in Hebrew.


Joseph
Usage: English, French, German, Biblical
Pronounced: JO-sef (English), zho-ZEF (French), YO-zef (German)

From the Latin Iosephus, which was from the Greek Ιωσηφος (Iosephos), which was from the Hebrew name יוֹסֵף (Yosef) meaning "he will add". In the Old Testament Joseph is the eleventh son of Jacob. Because he was the favourite of his father, his older brothers sent him to Egypt and told their father that he had died. In Egypt, Joseph became an advisor to the pharaoh, and was eventually reconciled with his brothers when they came to Egypt during a famine. This is the name of two characters in the New Testament: Joseph the husband of Mary and Joseph of Arimathea. Also, rulers of the Holy Roman Empire have had this name.
