Harry turns 1 month old

Harry is already one month old! Exactly 1 short month ago Chad and I received the most perfect gift we had ever been given, Harrison Dean. We knew we would love the little baby inside of my belly but, we were not ready for the overwhelming amount of love this child blessed us with. It seems that we are constantly looking at him and saying "Wow he is growing so much" or "Wow he is the most beautiful thing in the world" or "Wow I didn't know I could love something so much"! Harrison has made a perfect addition to this Warehouse and we could not be more in aah of God's blessing. I remember my first cry over how much love God had bestowed on us. My sister in law, Amy gave Harrison a book titled I Love You So by Marianne Richmond, I was reading it to Harrison and found my tears drenching his onesie that is now to small for him. I ended up reading it to him a half a dozen times, crying harder after each word. I have to put a few of the lines from the book in this one month blog because, even though I don't cry over the words they are so true. The book is made up of similes and metaphors comparing a mother's and father's love to their son.

"I love you as GIGANTIC as a great lion's roar,
and as DEEP as the ocean,
I love you MUCH more.

"That is a lot," you say,
"but HOW did it start?
Where did love come from
to be in your heart?"
this part is so true!
You put it there, really
when you and I met.
And i knew for certain
WITHOUT you I'd fret

From MY HEAD to my TOEs
I was feeling inside
a devotion for you
SO DEEP and SO WIDE
And now it's ENORMOUS
and wonderfully real
and hard to describe
HOW MUCH I feel!!


I think this part really got to me because just days before I had experienced that feeling so REAL! We have had the most wonderful month of our lives with our son who is perfect and we love so....
