Mikail Elise Kuntz was born on Feb. 2, 2008. She just celebrated her nine month birthday and she is a precious gift from heaven. She was a teny tiny thing, weighing only five pounds when she was born...at full term. And even now at 9mo, weighing just 15. I love it because every time I visit she acts older in the things that she is able to do...and the number of teeth in her mouth, but she always seems the same size. This is a great thing for the aunt that lives 1000 miles away and just HATES missing out on so much of her life. I am indeed her very proud aunt aims!!
Mikail was dedicated two weeks ago at North Church, the church that my bro and sis are helping to plant in St. Louis. This dedication was a simple, yet powerful commitment, both for the family as well as the the friends that David and Danielle currently live life with in their community. A commitment to teach Mikail about Jesus and to raise her in a godly home where she will have great opportunity to hear and see the gospel lived out on a daily basis. We pray that one day Mikail will come to understand and embrace the love of Jesus as her very own.
I thought I would share a few pics of this incredibly special day with you...

see but Mikail is clapping in this one. She was
giving a hearty Amen!
