Maren Elaine Is Here!!!

Little Maren Elaine has arrived!!! She came to us on July 17 at 11:11 pm. It was a long hard day starting at 2:03 am and ending that evening. She weighs 6 lbs. 14 ounces and is 18" long. I feel so overwhelmed with many feelings but especially with such love and gratitude for our Savior Jesus Christ who made it all possible for us to feel such tremendous love and compassion for such a little person. I feel so grateful for so many things that I know I will not be able to say it all but I am especially grateful that God sends angels to assist us in all we do. The first angels I can think of are Maren's great-grandmas that she is named after. We know without a doubt that they were with her and loved her before she came to us. They will assist her always. Second, I am grateful for our parents! They sacrificed so much to bring us here and continue to dedicate their lives to making ours wonderful. With all the meals, time, and service they constantly give I don't know how to express how much gratitude I feel. Third, all the people in our lives, extended family and friends have contributed so much to us three that we can feel God's love through his heavenly and earthly angels. We feel truly blessed and want to share our lives with you and hope that we can have the same influence in your lives. Stay tuned for more Maren fun!
