The Beginning...

I feel like my life is changing so quickly and I don't want to miss a minute. I want to be able to look back and remember all the memories that are currently in the making.

I am a wife to Jamie Akins, a wonderful man and my best friend. Our wedding was June 4, 2006. What a wonderful day! I had our first child, Jayden Lane Akins, February 13, 2011. He weighed 7lbs 5ozs and was 21 inches long. He has blessed our lives and we have experienced a love for him like no other. I have the best family, friends and church family I could ever ask for.

Jayden is 7 weeks and 3 days old today. He is such a wonderful baby. He is becoming so alert and following us with his eyes and smiling all the time. He can almost hold his head up-  sometimes he still wobbles around. When I lay him on his back- he rolls to his side. He has changed SO MUCH in 7 weeks. It seems like every morning there is something different.

God's love became so new and fresh to me when I experienced the love for my sweet baby boy. How amazing it is to think of how deep God's love is for us. When I look at Jayden- he is so dependent- relying on us for every single thing he needs. He crys when he is hungry and we feed him. He needs milk to survive. It is just like us as Christians. We are fully dependent on Christ. We rely on Him for every single one of our needs. We need Jesus to survive. He provides us with everything we need. What an amazing thought!

I am so blessed...
