Alice Kate

There's a new little one in our lives. Her name is Alice Kate. She's named for two of the most influential women in my spiritual walk. Alice for my "little bitty grandma" Alice McCannon. She was the most godly woman I've ever known and her life marked mine distinctly. She modeled Jesus consistently and unashamedly along with unconditional love for her family. I couldn't think of a better woman for my little girl to aspire too. Which brings us to Kate. 

The second most influential woman in my faith walk is Phoebe Kate Barron. She was my first mentee. But our discipleship bond taught and challenged me more than anything else. Our relationship grew to one of mutual respect, love, and true Titus sisterhood. I want that legacy to continue in Alice's life. So we chose to honor Phoebe by giving her part of her name to our daughter. 

We have so many hopes and dreams for her. But mostly we hope Jesus for her. May we continue to grow into parents who truly model God, the Father, for our children.
