Welcome to the world Mara Hope.
Born on Friday, we are so grateful for our sweet baby girl. More info to come.
For now, you will find me blissfuly snuggling my sweet girl while breathing in her newborn scent. There's nothing I love more, nowhere else I'd rather be. <3
Serena Ball
Oh! There she is. I LOVE her name. Keep breathing in that precious scent. And kissing the top of her head. (:
Laura
Oh yes! SO much breathing in the newborn scent. I wish it could be bottled some how! 🙂

I just went to your Twitter to schedule a tweet and found this instead. AWW! Congratulations! She's adorable. 🙂 I hope you enjoy your time with her and far, far away from all things blogging! 😉
Laura
Thank you Erin! I have definitely loved taking a step back (and for a while a total break) from blogging to soak in my sweet girl!
Emily
THIS IS THE BEST NEWS! It's amazing and such an incredible gift that she came on a weekend that so many all around the world celebrate new life in Christ because Jesus LIVES! And I love her name. How did you pick it?
Laura
Thank you Emily!! 🙂 YES! I was super glad that she was born on Good Friday so my hubby could still preach the sermon on Easter Sunday! 🙂
Rusty Ryan
Welcome Sweet Mara!
We celebrated Laura today by enjoying her baked Falafel and Carrot Cake at our Easter table.
The Sandfords were missed at the Ryan Easter table, that's for sure!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
