The Choosing of Godparents

This post was written by Everleigh's godmother: http://onenovembermorning.blogspot.com/2012/07/getting-it.html who is about to depart to spend a year of her life in Costa Rica. I got a little weepy as I read it because this is exactly what we wanted when we chose her to be Everleigh's godmother.

All of our children's godparents are so absolutely perfect for their personalities that it sends chills up my back. When I think about answered prayers, the times we prayed about whom we wanted to designate to assist us with their spiritual guidance comes quickly to mind. That decision, like their names (which so perfectly fit them too), was clearly guided by a GOD who knows so much better than we do.

In the days when I don't feel like a very good mom or when I worry about some of their particular characteristics, I remember that God has guided from the very beginning.

Thank you, my friend - I'm so honored to be Ev's godmama... and can't WAIT to see what God has in store for that precious nugget's life.
