Ellie J Blessing Day.

we blessed ellie on jan 25th. just 4 days from her 4month birhtday. it was a beautiful day. tyler blessed her with her grandpa casper, chris campbell, briar, bishop hawkins and skylar eppich in the circle. i am so thankful for many priesthood holding men that surround me and my girls. good men who i know i can always count on for blessings. the priesthood power is real, i know that.

anyways, irecorded her blessing so here it is:
"Our Father in Heaven, in the name of Jesus Christ and by the power of the Melchezidec Priesthood the name by which she shall be known is Elaine J. Casper.

it was such a beautiful blessing, given with so much love. during it was very emotional, and i felt what ellies life might look like. i felt that she would have some trials in her lifetime, but that if i can teach her to live in light and happinessa and righteousness, that she would have joy and happiness. i sure love her, and so am so thankful for her sweet spirit in my life, every single day. she really does belong here, with us. and i can't wait for tomorrow and every day, month and year with her to come.

she was born at a special time in our lives. she came, when we needed hope. we needed a little piece of heaven, and that's exactly what she is. a little piece of heaven.

we love you elaine j.
