A Note From Allie...


Peter and Heather:

It is hard to believe that in days you will meet this little boy who has “cooked” inside for 9 months!!  It’s even more amazing to process that God created him and loves him more than you can imagine. This kind of love blows me away. His love is simply amazing!

I am confident that your hearts will be filled with awe and wonder in the days ahead.  I pray that in the whirlwind of parenthood, with each new twist and turn it brings, you have time to experience the wonder of Christ in it all.  Reflecting on how God relates to us like a parent to His children, even as you parent. Feeling the depth of love you have for a small helpless baby that cannot offer you much in return gives us a glimpse into the heart of God.  Yet, through it all knowing that your love for your little guy is but a poor reflection of God’s love for us.

Heather you have always had a beautiful Christ centered heart for loving and serving others. I remember a time when you were encouraging Renee and I through simple scriptural reminders around the apartment, drawing us back to Him and His simple truths!  I pray that He would overwhelm you with his love and presence in the weeks and months ahead.  Keep your eyes open for He will never cease to amaze you in how He shows His love for you.  Embrace it!

You will both be wonderful parents…
(love God first, then love one another, then this sweet boy…)

We love you and will continue to pray for you through this next step in the journey.

Adam and Allie
Girls too!  :)
