Justice Brielle Gifford
7 weeks old
Bright eyes
I love my daddy!!
So here I am.....almost 2am!! Shouldn't I be sleeping while my sweet little one is sleeping?? Probably so. Let's not mention the obvious fact that I am terribly behind on updating my blog!! Hopefully my little Facebook vacation will help me be more faithful in journaling more. Facebook is a REALLY good way to cheat and a good way to be lazy when you don't necessarily want to write a lengthy post!! But enough about my lazy ways, let's get to the good stuff. Justice Brielle is now almost 2 months old!! How the time is FLYING!! The more children we have, the faster the hours turn to days, days to weeks, weeks to months, and before you know it years are just zooming by!! Needless to say, Justice has completely stolen our hearts(as her predecessors have before her). She's been smiling more and more over the last week and she's even giving us little squeals and giggles. It's truly amazing and incredibly sweet. She's learning how to express herself and it's precious. Tonight I held her, rocked her to sleep, and sang to her. Well, I was singing to her until I got caught up in worship and then the Father began to sing over us. It was a beautiful time. There is something about being a parent that gives you a tiny glimpse into the Father heart of God and the incredible love that he has for His children. The love I feel for my children is sometimes overwhelming. I would do anything for any one of them. How much more would the Father pursue us to the ends of the earth?? His love is a FORCE......He is after us. He loves us so much...

17 The Lord your God is in the midst of you, a Mighty One, a Savior [Who saves]! He will rejoice over you with joy; He will rest [in silent satisfaction] and in His love He will be silent and make no mention [of past sins, or even recall them]; He will exult over you with singing.
