Name Gallery # 1

I can't even begin to tell you how much I love getting these emails from family, friends, and even people we do not know that feel led to "write" out Hadley's name for us.

I want to share most of the ones I have received so far...I LOVE THEM ALL!!!  I can't share them all because some were created in files that aren't compatible with blogger, but please know I treasure each and every one.  Daniel and I can't believe how many we have received already.  We are so blessed!!

So here is the very first look at what is to come of sweet Hadley's Name Gallery...































Aren't they all so creative??  I can't wait to see what people come up with over different holidays :)

I had a great first day back at school today.  I only went for half a day and it was perfect.  I had enough time to see my sweet students and figure out things I need to do in order to prepare for Monday.  When I pulled up to the school I was very emotional and I expected that.  The last time I was at school I was still pregnant with Hadley, I knew I was going to feel a lot of pain.  I sat in my car for a minute, prayed, called a friend, prayed again, and then felt a lot better.  The reunion with my students was priceless...they were so surprised to see me because they were expecting me on Monday :)  It was so sweet getting all of those hugs and smiles!!  I can't help but think about my post a couple days ago...JOY even in the shadows :)  

This weekend, one of Daniel's very best friends he grew up with is getting married.  I'm excited to spend time with old friends and spend time with my hubby!!  We are staying at the Gaylord on Saturday night after the wedding to celebrate our 4th wedding anniversary next Thursday!!  Thank you to my sweet Mom who is keeping Briley for us :)  Aren't Gigi's the best???

Have a wonderful weekend!!

In Christ's Love,
