Azure's Blessing

We had the opportunity to bless little Azure last Sunday and to have Mom and Dad Ballard here visiting completed the entire weekend. It was a special day for our family and one we have had the gift of experiencing four times prior. I sat there thinking about our children's previous blessings and the one Azure had just received. I looked at all five of these awesome children that Steven and I have been given the great privilege of raising upon this earth and was overwhelmed with deep gratitude to Heavenly Father. Parenting is an awesome, incredible gift, with everyone involved learning and growing together. It's an all encompassing experience that's both wonderfully amazing, and yet, offers moments that challenge you and build faith. To define it perfectly, there's NO better job in the world!
