For This Child I Prayed

Ashley was one of my favorite walking partners and great friends in Mississippi ( as seen in the previous post, "Wanna Walk?") . She was one of the many people who prayed and prayed that God would give us a baby, and when we found out we were pregnant, she painted this picture for the nursery--a quote from I Samuel 1--a story from scripture about how God answered Hannah's prayer for  a child after years and years of waiting, and how He used that child in amazing ways for His glory. The picture hangs over Brock's crib now as a daily reminder of God's goodness to us. This weekend, Aunt Ashley got to meet our little answered prayer for the first time. We even took him on a walk together for old times' sake. God is so good :)
