A special day for West







Today we dedicated sweet little West back to the Lord. We had a wonderful day filled with family and friends. God blessed us with amazing weather so that we could all be outside and enjoy all of his creations. The kids had a great time playing in the back yard. The gown that West wore was made out of the parachute material from my grandfathers parachute from World War II. My dad wore it, I wore it and my sister and several other family members. Baby Thomas was not dedicated in this bc we could not find it, you store this in a mason jar to protect it from the air and we feared that when we moved out of the home that we grew up in it was accidently thrown out. Praise the Lord that my mom found it, just about a month ago. It fit West perfectly and was special the he could wear something that my late father and late Grandfather had worn and used! Even more special, West's full name is Richard West, my grandfather was Richard West Sr, my father was Richard West Jr, now we have little West. We are sooo thankful that God has entrusted us with West and thankful for our









wonderful family and friends who were able to be with us today. We are so pleased that you stand with us to raise our children to know and love the Lord. It truly takes a village. We love you sweet little West and may God bless you always and keep him in his care.
