More often than not, everytime someone meets you for the first time, they say to me "Well, isn't that the smiliest baby ever". And it's true, I think you just might be. You are overflowing with smiles. Your name means “pure tree” and when I think about this beautiful, unique meaning, I am committed to praying Psalm 1:1-3 over you
“Oh the joys of the pure, of those who don’t follow the advice of the wicked. Their delight; their joy is in the law of the Lord. They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit in every single season….they prosper in all that they do.”
And so, sweet Ashton, my prayer for you is that you would be a like a pure tree….that you would plant yourself along the river and that you would bear much fruit. May your delight, your joy, always be found in the law of the Lord.
On this day, November 8th, 2009, your father and I commit to raising you to look to God as your Father, your Savior, and your King, May you know His love, His grace and His sovereignty over your life, more intimately than I do.
I love you.
Mom

So sweet.
I love the little boy with the spider man costume in the background, just b/c it remdinds me a little bit of my son. :)
Halloween was over just a little too soon for that guy!
I am so sad I missed this special day. We love you guys and pray blessings on Ashton's little life.
