Finley's Dedication

A few weeks ago we had Finley dedicated at church. As her parents we were dedicating to raise her up in the Lord and asking our church body to come alongside of us in the journey.

"The Lord your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing." Zephaniah 3:17

The picture below makes me chuckle. It was a really sweet time but I just want to set the record straight for the girls later when they see this...your daddy was not actually wiping a tear away here.

Amazingly, she did not cry when Will held her to pray over her! I had to wake her up from her morning nap to get her to church on time. Like her sister at this age, she already shows a bit of what we refer to as "stranger danger" so I was suprised when she just sat there in his arms happy as can be.

She promptly went back down for a nap when we got home after the service so she missed the photo ops with all of our family and friends that were able to join us for lunch (Shushu, Great-Mamaw, Maymay, Peeps, Aunt Noni, Uncle Bubba, Pop-Pop, Jeff, Becca, and Eli!). Pop-pop was still hanging around when she woke back up though, as seen in the shots below. A big thanks to everyone who joined us that day to celebrate this sweet little girl!
