Asher is ONE 01/27/2012

I knew this day was eventually going to come. I just didn't realize how fast this first year would go by. I think back to a year ago (tomorrow actually) and how scared I was, how anxious I was, how overwhelmed with emotion and love I was. I remember when Asher was in my arms...all I could do was think about how perfect he was. Now a year later, he is still just as perfect! I wonder if he knows how much he is loved? I've said it before, I always thought I knew what kind of love ny parents had for me.....having Asher REALLY opened my eyes to exactly what kind of love it is. I know now that I didn't fully comprehend it . How great is it to know that there is this little soul who loves you so much and you love so much and nothing will ever take that away. God has blessed me with the most wonderful gift I have ever received.  He chose me to be Asher's mom. That means so much to me and I thank Him constantly for it. I have watched my little guy grow this year and am amazed at how smart he is. YeS, I know every mom thinks their kid is the smartest - really mine is smarter :)JK! From the teething that started when he was 3 months old to the transition into daycare at 8 1/2 months to the severe allergic reaction to amoxocillin to him scooting backwards on the floor instead of crawling or walking to him learning to walk so quickly......to him reaching out his little arms for his mommy to hold him while calling my name. It is such an amazing process and I am SO SO GRATEFUL AND PROUD. Thank you Jesus for everything you have done in my life and continue to . Thank you to everyone who has helped make this 1st such a memorable year. Happy 1st Birthday Asher Adrian Puent! You are my heart and soul.  I love you!!!!!

2011

2011 was definitely a life changing year for me. It began in January when I gave birth to the most handsome 7lb 12 oz little boy in the world.  I can remember struggling to find the perfect name for my little man. I knew the moment I read the meaning of his name that I had found "the one." Asher- fortunate, blessed and happy.  Man did we hit the nail on the head with this name. He is all 3 of those. I remember when he was only a few hours old....he would smile and laugh in his sleep. He is such a happy baby and I thank God every day for allowing me to be his mommy. The joy that he has brought into my life is indescribable.  What an amazing blessing Asher man is.
I must say that one of the things that has strengthened within me during 2011 was/is my Faith. Realizing and Understanding Gods love for me. Knowing and trusting His will. Believing that God has a plan and a purpose for me, my future and giving it all to Him. Yes, I struggle with the giving it all to Him part sometimes....but in the end...I know God has nothing but good in store for me. What an amazing feeling it is to love Christ and know that He loves you unconditionally too. I must say that I am also thankful for my relationship with my friends and family. 2011 brought some trials my way. However through it all my friends and family have supported me and encouraged me the entire time. I am truly truly blessed to be loved by such wonderful people. I pray they feel the same love from me to them. Its hard to find people who are genuine, real, loving, supportive, Christlike and fun all rolled into one person. I have found this all in my friends and family.
