The first thing I think I learned as a new mom was unconditional love. There was something indescribable when they put that baby in my hands and left me for the night with him. I examined him, hugged him, kissed him, and snuggled him; I breathed in all his baby smells and knew no matter what, I would love him. I know, as his mother, I will always maintain that love , even in times I might not like what he is doing... I will always love him.
Becoming a mother and more understanding unconditional love, has helped me understand God's love for me. Unconditional, willing to go the distance, and fiercely gentle. I understand why God watches me, "hugs" me, and breathes me in as much as possible. Why He wants to give me riches in heaven and why he wants to spend eternity with me. Unconditional love. God might not always like what I am doing, but He will always love me.

Unconditional Love
Wednesday, April 3, 2013
Picking a name...
What a task if you really think about it... We get to decide what this human is to be called. Forever. Legally. Talk about pressure!
I knew if we had a boy we would name him Drake, because we were married on Drake's beach in California and the name was so unique... But other than that we were clueless.
We had multiple girl names picked out, but decided that we would have to meet her (if in deed we were to have a her) before we could name her. I love the name Naomi due to the Biblical character.
So as my due date approached I felt more and more stress about tge name... I prayed intensely that God would provide a perfect name because He already knew our baby.
Shortly after amen I heard the name Finnegan in my head... I knew God had given that to me. So the boys name was decided... Drake Finnegan... which means dragon fair.
The girls names we like are: Naomi, Elise, Elizabeth, Clementine, Alice, and a few more... But no for sure names yet... Keep you updated!
Can hardly wait to meet this little baby SMoore!
