Meet Miss Maelyn Grace Taylor! Our neighbors Matt & Carrie welcomed Miss Maelyn into this world a few days after Christmas and I finally had the pleasure of meeting this sweet baby girl :) We met at Chocolate Angel Tea Room and filled our bellies with some good food. I like to think Carrie and I are a lot alike (she might have a different opinion {wink, wink}) so we had lots to talk about. She is a NICU nurse so I was interested to hear how motherhood was treating her. Since she takes care of sick little babies all the time, she had a head start in the first mother department. But I was so surprised that some of the same thoughts, feelings and emotions that I felt in the first 4 months of Parker's life were very similar to what she is thinking, feeling and pondering currently. I love listening to new moms!!!
As I drove from lunch to pick up Parker, I thanked God that our paths crossed three years ago. Carrie is an amazing believer in God. A special lunch to celebrate Maelyn's first month of life turned into a conversation about God and how he has paved a life path for her that has not been free from hurt and trying times but rather moments that has lead her closer to God! I love that....and her. Her testimony made me thankful for my life and the relationship I have with God!!!
