Hello, Sweet Love

Perfect in every way!  

I love being an aunt.  This little girl was waited for for a long time in our little family.  Matt and Stacy knew that there was one more comin' but had a hard time getting pregnant for a while.  Stacy miscarried a couple times as well.  This story is similar to mine!  Apparently I was waited for for a long time as well, and I was the baby to complete our family.  That's why they gave me the middle name of Joy!  When Matt and Stacy found out that she was on her way, they knew they would give her the middle name of Joy.  They say that every time they thought of her name, they thought of her "special aunt Hannah Joy" too, and how she and the new babe would have a special little connection. 

 Us girls are the cabooses of our families, Livi girl, and I can't tell you how much I love this spot in our family.  It is so much fun!  It means that you have SOO many people looking out for you - backing you up.  Always.  You have some amazing examples over you!  Even though you are the 7th niece, and the 14th grandchild in our family, it doesn't get old!  I was so excited for you to get here!  Remember that your aunt, Hannah Joy, is always here for you to talk about mean junior high girls, cute boys, hard classes/teachers, our Savior, and anything else in the world!  Mostly remember that I love you no matter what!  Welcome to our forever family!
