6 months old!

Yesterday our baby was 6 months old! I truely can not believe it!! She has grown up so fast and keeps growing every day! Where oh where has the days and months gone? All this to say, my time with her is short so I want to do my best to invest in her as much as possible. I want to spend time with her, love her, read to her, and make the most of every minute with her. Before I know it she will be crawling, walking, talking, starting school, finishing school, getting married, having children....whoa!!! Deuteronomy 6 :7 tells me "You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up." That is what I have been called to do as Joanna's mother and that is my goal everyday. I want her to know Jesus, to follow Jesus and to "Love the Lord her God with all her heart, all her soul, all her mind and all her strength". I love this little girl, but oh how much more God loves her!!! Happy 6th month birthday, Joanna Ruth!! Thought I would post a few pictures of her over the past couple of months. I am sure I will be posting about her crawling soon...she is close!
