Juliet's Baptism

How could we forget to document such a monumental occasion?! Juliet was baptized in January and it’s March already! Wow. How are the days slipping away without us realizing and taking time to post and remember the special moments? Oh yeah, 3 kids took over our home and our time.  Not to mention a winter full of someone being sick each week. We are ready for spring! 

We wouldn't have it any other way. What an incredible blessing these 3 girls are to us. They help us see the joy in the little things, and see God's blessings all around us. Juliet was baptized on January 19, 2013 (click here for the slideshow). She was born into God's family and we had lots of family and close ones nearby to help us celebrate this most wonderful occasion. Uncle Paul and Aunt Tracy graciously accepted the duty of Godparents to our whittlest Ehlke daughter. We know she is so blessed to have these two guiding her in her walk with Christ. 



Juliet's middle name is so fitting. Hope: A feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen. She is such a blessing after we prayed and prayed for a healthy baby to arrive full-term. God answered our prayers and made us all a little stronger with opening our eyes to the community of people surrounding us that opened their hearts to care for all of us during bed rest. He prepared us for this new life as a family of 5 by teaching us lessons that we may not have otherwise learned. Juliet is a true beacon of God's love.
