This is page 1 of my Apples and Kisses layout. I used the Joanne Brisebois Apple Bette Kit and Jennilyn Foldem 5 for the page fold. Journaling on both pages says,

Dear Heavenly Father,
You are so wonderful. You are so gracious !
We thank you for this precious little girl.
We pray that her life will be filled with
abundant fruit. Fruit from Your Spirit that
will glorify You and give her immense
joy as she serves You and grows closer
to You. May she be a blessing to many.
In Jesus Name. Amen

Oh, how precious!
What fun it was to watch you
pick up the apples. It was hard for you
at first because the apples were almost
too big for your little hands. You would
get one picked up only to accidently
drop it while you were trying to pick up
another one in the other hand. But you
persisted and were successful in carrying
two apples at one time. You were so
happy when you could actually pick one
up and show it to us. Then once and
awhile you would pause and show us
your newly acquired skill of giving kisses.
What a treasure these days are!
All of us - Daddy & I and your brothers
and sisters are all enjoying your days of
discovery. We all love you! Love, Mom


...let us continually offer
the sacrifice of praise to God,
that is, the fruit of our lips,
giving thanks to His name.
Hebrews 13:15

Dear Father,
May the fruit of Selahs
lips be praise thanks to You.
In Jesus Name. Amen.
