#3

























Last night a friend looked at the picture on my phone & said "awww, look at her". I had to correct her. She thought that the picture of Eliot was of Hazel. It made me smile & warmed my heart in a way that I can't really express. Sometimes she looks so much like him & sometimes not as much. Either way, I guess our kiddos have a similar "look" just like other families, even though Eliot isn't here & our family is not necessarily like other families.

What a precious little wonder! She is so beautiful. We have a precious little 6 month old named Cheyenne who was born 9 months and 3 days after our other daugther Liberty passed away - though she doesn't always look like her sister, she is a constant reminder of who is waiting on us in Heaven!! Praise God that we will be with our babies again! What a wonderful father we have to serve!!! We pray for your precious family always..God bless

In His love,
The Turner Family

She is a beautiful little girl! And yes, that pic of her in the pink striped shirt has an expression that reminds me of Eliot. She's a lucky little girl!

How does it make your heart soar to be the daddy of such a beautiful little girl? I see Eliot in her expressions too, what a blessing for you. Enjoy these days to the fullest.

Love and Hugs, Laurie

I was going to comment when you posted pictures of Hazel before that she looks like Eliot. How precious it must be to catch glimpses of him in her! So glad to see you're blogging again!

She's so gorgeous!! As beautiful as Eliot. And yes, they are siblings. What a gift. God is GOOD!

Love her babylegs! (the rainbow leg warmers she has on). Our baby daughter has the same ones! They are on her now.

I wanted to let you know how many times I've passed on 99 Balloons to others, and many times, on a weak parent day (days like you've written about...lack of sleep, no sleep, whiney 5 year old...fussy 8 month old, etc) how I'll just watch it for myself. His life and your video are simply two of the most beautiful acts of God I've been inspired by outside my family. Both are reminders of his Will, his great Love for us, and his presence in ALL things!

God Bless you all, enjoy Ms. Thang, and a blessed Lent to you!

Your daughter Hazel is so adorable. I am so glad she is a part of your lives. I come to your website to gather strength when my days are gloomy. I have a premature baby with so many developmental delays.

Thank you for sharing how Jesus has impacted your life.

Blessings, Nicole from Rosemead, CA.
