Dear Heavenly Father,

Words cannot begin to express our gratitude for the gift of Cade. We have been faithful in you and clung to your promise that if we delight ourselves in you, you will give us the desires of our heart. Well, 3 years later, many doctors, tears, and prayers...here we are. Today we hold the most precious gift you have ever given us, Cade Beatty Hall. Monday, August 10th, 2009 will forever be a day of happiness and gratitude. His stubborn personality and desire to be breech meant he came via c-section at 7:37pm, which we were thankful everything went perfectly smooth. We are gracious for his healthy weight of 8.1 pounds and his length of 20.25 inches. He is just perfect and we could not have asked for a more perfect gift. So, today we dedicate this blog to every person out there Lord who is struggling with decisions in life and feeling like you are not there. We too felt like that at times, but you continued to show us that faith and perserverance will prevail and you gave us a gift that was worth the wait of all those years! Thank you again for showing us the gift of life through you, yet again.

Amen

I could not sympathize more with our blessed gift from God too! What precious pictures! And Cade still looks pretty small...I forgot D was that small once too.

Stacy, Please tell Charles that the picture of Cade and him wearing matching Baylor ties is the most incredibly awesome picture I have ever seen! However, I know they will look even more incredible wearing the maroon set that should arrive shortly!

Dear Stacy and Charles,

Congratulations!!! Cade is absolutely beautiful. It was wonderful to read the last few posts, and see all the pictures. I'll be thinking of you all. Is there an e-mail where I could write you?
