On April 27th we had Jordan's dedication at the church. We dedicated her to God and pray she will love Him with all of her heart, her soul and her mind from an early age. We tell her each and every day how loved she is by God and what a special gift she is to our family. We feel incredibly blessed to be her parents.
Chris and I stood in front of our church, our friends and all of our family and promised to Jordan that she would be raised in a Christian household. We promised that she will be in a family that will love and support her every step of her life. We promised that we would pray for her and with her and that we would seek God's wisdom for her throughout her life.
We were so happy that all of our family members were able to come to witness our promise to Jordan and celebrate our little girl. This group of people will be the largest influences in her life and we have no doubt that they will also love and support her throughout her life, reminding her how loved she is by God and how He has such great plans for her future.

And the Mudges (Well one of them!) They were all there :)
Jordan was kind of done taking pictures, should have taken this one sooner!
Our letter to Jordan:
Dear Jordan Elizabeth,
We are so thankful to God for the incredible blessing that you are to our lives. We pray for wisdom that we may be good examples to you and lead you on the path to knowing Christ from an early age.
Our prayer for you is that you become a strong God fearing woman with the traits listed in Colossians 3:12 & 14, “Put on then compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience. And above all these put on love.”
Our promise to you is that we will love you unconditionally and throughout this journey of life challenge you to seek God in all that you do.
We love you, Mom and Dad
