On May 15th, we celebrated a very special day. John and I were able to publicly dedicate our son before family and friends at Buckhead Church. It is our prayer that he begins to walk with the Lord at a very young age. John and I were challenged to really flesh out what values and habits are important to us as a family. We're reminded that it's not just about nice pretty ideas packaged with a bow, but more about living out those values in our own personal lives. Just as John Parker imitates our actions, so he will be watching how we respond to others and what drives us as adults. We were so grateful to be surrounded by parents that know and love the Lord and friends that can come alongside us on this journey of parenting. A special thank you to our parents, Jaillene and James, and Anthony and Amanda for being a part of that day.
