Bonny and Harry started lobbying for a new brother or sister - and we were on board with the idea - but it just wasn't happening. Bonny even told people at church that I was pregnant with a new baby - I think she thought if she told people, I would make good on the suggestion!
So we had a special Family Home Evening and decided to fast and pray for a new baby in our home. Bonny and Harry both participate - and not surprisingly, our prayers were answered!
Phoebe's name means "light" and her middle name, Elizabeth, means "gift of God." She has lived up to her name in its entirety!
Phoebe is and always has been an essential member of our family. We are so grateful for the wonderful gift from God of light and delight that she is in our family!
Have a great year - and a wonderful day too - we love you!! (Everyone does actually!!)
