It's A Girl!





Well, little Aliyah JodyMarie made her entrance into the world on her own time. Sandra went into labor about 9pm on June 9th. We got to the hospital at 11Pm and she was born at 2:55 am on June 10th. We are very excited to have her part of our family and so far seems to have a very easygoing personality. She does not cry much and if she does it is very mild. Thanks to all of your prayers and support during the difficult pregnancy. We feel very grateful that Heavenly Father watched over Sandra and the baby. We can't wait for you to meet Aliyah in person.

OK, I just happened to be cleaning out my hotmail account (it's been relegated to junk mail) and stumbled upon your great news! I'm so happy for you. Jared's in the other room watching basketball, but he'll be so excited to see your blog and to watch Lorin's interview at LSU. Way to go, Sandra! Way to go, Lorin.

"I watch beside your cradle.Your face touched by the moon. My heart just aches and trembles with all my love for you. Your eyes shine like your father's. That nose looks just like me. I often stare and wonder,at such a mystery. How God can touch the love of a man and a wife, and blossom it into the breath of life. Just look at this life.... Our eyes are filled with dreaming. We want so much for you. Though we might fail you often before your life is through. Only your Heavenly Father, can hear your every prayer. And when we're just a memory, your Lord will still be there. So on our knees, we pray this cradle song. That you'll always know, the Lord will keep you strong. We want you to understand, you rest in His loving hands. For you are Jesus' little lamb".....Congrats from the Hill's!!! Almost had a conference baby!!
