on the twelfth day of the twelfth month at ten ten am, we had a baby girl...today we celebrate her and give honor to our God for our gift, sophie rayne werdal.

she was given her name after three days of intense deliberation. the meaning...we wanted a name that would be strong and classy, a name tied to family and honoring scott and i's journey. rayne comes from the many blessings we have been given. when scott and i started dating, were married and found out about sophie, it was pouring rain. rain at our wedding was ended with a rainbow that filled the sky and reminded us of the Lord's promise to never leave us...truly we are blessed.

my eyes are filled with tears as i think of this past year. i am honored to have been able to care for and love this girl. she brings new joys and life into our home. she is beautiful and wonderful. she is created with our Fathers love.

our most beautiful sophie...words escape us, we love you.
