Dear Noah, Last Sunday, your mom and I launched The Bridge. It’s a new church that didn’t exist a year and a half ago. We started it in our home and it has grown to the point that we have begun weekly services. Someday when you can read, I want you to go to Matthew [...]

Dear Noah, I know it’s been a while since I have written you a letter, but I am going to try and do much better. I haven’t been too good at this since you have been born as I would rather just hold you in my arms and whisper it in your ear. Tonight was [...]

Dear Noah, I cannot believe how fast you are growing!! You’re becoming so round. I believe you got your eating habits from the Hill side of the family as it is pretty much like your dad’s. Let me tell you what the best feeling in the whole world is…It’s the feeling of you laying on [...]

Dear Noah, My favorite part of the day is the morning. Why? You might ask…it’s because I get to spend it with you. It’s our special one on one time. No one else in the family is awake except you and me. I feed you your “baba” and then you will swing for about the [...]

Dear Noah, It’s been a while since I have written a letter to you but I think that is because I can talk with you personally now. You are even beginning to respond. I can’t begin to tell you how special you are and what a blessing. I never knew that I could love as [...]

Dear Noah, I wish you could always stay the age you are now. You are so beautiful and carefree. All it takes in your world to make you happy is a full belly, someone holding you and a clean diaper. I wish I could always hold you and protect you. I wish I could always [...]

Dear Noah, I’ve got to share this with you…last night we went to Latham’s Spring Rivival. As we were sitting in the worship service, you tooted very loudly and “man-style”. Every one for three pews turned and looked at us. I pretty much got blamed for it because most people would not thing that someone [...]

Dear Noah, It’s six thirty on a Saturday morning. You and I have been up since 5:30, which is your normal wake up time. Here is our routine for the mornings. You wake us up and I come out to fix your breakfast and then I go back to the bedroom to get you. I [...]

Dear Noah, Yesterday you turned 1 month old. I cannot begin to tell you how happy you have made our family and what wonderful joy you have brought to us. On one hand it seems that you have been here for years and on the other hand it seems like you were just born yesterday. [...]

Dear Noah, Yesterday (April 16) was your mom’s birthday. I cooked bar-b-q ribs on the grill and one of the members of the church brought over a salad. I got her a cake that said, “Happy Birthday Mom” on it. Erica placed all the candles on it, lit them and then we sang Happy Birthday [...]

Dear Noah, Our adventures continue. As I returned to work this week, I realized how attached to you I am. I got to the office at 7:45 and by 9:45 I was texting your mother from staff meeting to see if she would bring you to the church. She did and I got to feed [...]

Dear Noah, Here are a few of the things that I have learned in the first week and a half since you have been born: 1. I’ve leaned not to feed you 5 ounces of milk no matter how much you want it. The other day I was feeding you your bottle. You drank all [...]

Dear Noah, You’re almost 2 weeks old and I must tell you something. You are the most beautiful baby I have ever seen. Now, I don’t want you to think that I’m being arrogant or cocky because I’m not. I’m just stating fact, you are a handsome dude and I am so proud to be [...]

Dear Noah, Let me tell you some more about your first day…After we spent about an hour in the labor/delivery room, you and I traveled to the nursery. It was there you got your first shot (which you didn’t like nor did I). I then helped the nurse give you your first bath. I got [...]

Dear Noah, You had other plans! Mom went into labor on Thursday night about 6:00. Her contractions got below 5 minutes about 8:00 and about 9:00, we called the hospital and they said come on in. We got there and they started running all kinds of test. Mom stayed in labor. About 4:00, I asked [...]

Dear Noah, We went to the Dr. today and guess what!!! Unless you change the plans, we will meet you on Monday, March 31, 2008. We are to be at the hospital at 5:00 AM and we could not be more excited. It is heart stopping to think that everything we do next week, we [...]

Dear Noah, Today is Good Friday. It’s the day that we remember Jesus dying on the cross. I know you may not understand this but it is the foundation of our faith as Christians. God so loved the world that He sent his only Son and whoever believes in him will not perish but have [...]
