Happy Birthday, Samuel

My heart leaps for {joy} yet sinks at the same time when I think on how fast this year has gone by and how much our sweet Samuel has grown and developed! It was one year ago that Joshua and I went into the hospital (almost exactly as I write this post at 6:45am) to welcome our first son into this world. WHAT AN EXPERIENCE! WHAT A JOY!!!

 I never really knew all the precious and tender moments we would experience in a year's time, but let me tell you: It has not only been the sweetest year in our marriage, but probably one of the sweetest years of our lives. God has blessed us beyond what we could have EVER imagined or hoped for by giving us Samuel Norton Clutterham. He brings so much joy, enthusiasm, laughter, and like I said PRECIOUS moments into our lives and we are so grateful that God has made us stewards over this little life.
As I scroll through the many pictures that have been taken of this awesome little guy (trying to give you all just a taste of joy that we get on a daily basis :),  my eyes fill with tears as I am humbled by God's favor that He has bestowed on us! Here are just a few from Sam Sam's first year!
Soundly sleeping his first day in this world :)

Thank you so much for letting me share our joy with you!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SAMUEL!

I am a redeemed woman who seeks to reflect that redemption by living out my calling as a wife and momma! My primary purpose in life is to glorify God through obedience by helping my husband and loving others. Of course, I don't do this perfectly, so I daily rely on the work of Jesus to count me righteous and rest in His saving grace!
