Oh my goodness I am a mom!  I look at the face of my handsome boy Kenaniah, but we call him Niah every morning and am so filled with Awe.  What a gift, what a joy, I can't believe God would entrust his precious gift for me to raise.   Truly remarkable...  When I was a little girl I played with dolls all the time never knowing I wouldn't be a mom until I was 30 years old.  It seems like a whole other lifetime has gone by in between those years and now.  That is fine though God just had some OTHER plans up His sleeve, I was able to truly live and travel all over the nation and globe loving others and I led a very full single life before I was married and now a mother.  I am now able to pour all of myself into being a wife/mommy and my mind isn't anywhere else, that is a wonderful feeling.

  Jacob is a FABULOUS father and adoring Husband, I wouldn't be half as relaxed and rested without all of his love and support!   I love Jacob immensely and never knew I could l love him anymore, but I do every time I see him holding our precious son with that look of glee in his face to be a daddy I find my heart growing larger towards him.  So sweet! SO much has happened since we were married almost fifteen months ago, we have moved and bought a house, we have fixed it up (almost done!), got pregnant,  and now Niah has arrived and we are homeowners and parents! Ah! What a year, hopefully 2009 will quiet down a bit.

  The Lord has been amazing, I love Him and pray everyday to not be a whining Israelite in the Desert who has been given my freedom and just find something to complain about and not appreciate what has been given to me.  It hasn't been that long that I was in a battle to see the Lord's faithfulness to His promises in His word to me and I don't EVER want to forget where He found me that I may always live and love and give to others what has been poured so vastly into me.  

  This blog is for Niah and the Moore family that our memories and life can be preserved, shared, and reflected upon as we grow in the years that the Lord enables us to live on this earth.
