Ambree's special day!

January 3rd was such a wonderful day. We blessed our baby girl, Ambree Sheila Winterbottom and it was perfect. I have been looking forward to her blessing so very long and I am so grateful that her daddy was able to give her this special gift.

This day has been so important to me and I have been looking forward

to having her blessed, to have her be held by the most important men in her life and to be loved and blessed with such beautiful gifts, was so wonderful to me. I am grateful for the Priesthood and all the blessings it brings to our lives. This year I have had many blessings given to me to help strengthen me and to help me through difficult times. Through out Ambree's pregnancy I had to learn to trust in my Heavenly Father and just be patience. After we lost Sharyn I thought that I would never be truly happy again and here we are blessed with another beautiful baby girl that has brought true joy to our lives. I still feel an empty spot in my heart and there is nothing that can feel it, but I know that if I stay close to our Heavenly Father that he will help lift my spirit and make it easier. I also felt our baby Sharyn there with us that day and it was such a comfort to me. I know that she is watching over our family and smiling down on here new baby sister with love. We had so

many family and friends come it was wonderful, to share this day with us and to celebrate our baby girl.

It was perfect!
