Thunder Baby Rotruck!

Every day that I go to work I get to see my god son, Rayden Thor.

I have many friends who have children, and there are a few who are extra special to me. Juliette, Conner, Elijah, Jack, Arianna, and little man Rayden. I have the joy and privilege of being part of these little kids life, a few of them I even got to see them be born. Some of them I refer to as "my babies" and Rayden is one of them.

His mommy and daddy are good friends of mine, I was even in their wedding! When I found out Hannah (Rayden's Momma) I had to go outside and shout into the January air because her own younger siblings didn't know yet. I took picture of her when she was adorably pregnant and it was in that car ride that I was asked to be his god mother. I take it seriously. To asked me be part of a child's life is no small thing. I look forward to seeing him grow, and watching him learn...it's exciting.

Well now, Rayden's Momma had to go back to work...and her mother and her family (who think that Rayden is the best thing since sliced bread) get to watch this little bundle of joy. Everyday, I send his Momma a picture from my phone. I've never been so happy that I have a phone and technology is as advanced as it is. I get to bring a smile to Hannah's face with a simple text message.

I get to change my own attitude too.

I woke up today on the wrong side of the bed. I was angry and grumpy and didn't want to care about any one, any where. But at some point, when I was looking at this little guy,


I realized how incredibly blessed I am to get to be around Rayden. I also realized that I have million pictures of his cute little self on my phone! 

I wanted to share a few of those pictures, and I wanted to send a special to his Momma;

"Blessed are you among woman, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!" 

It is wonderful to be a part of this little family! I pray for them all daily, and I can't wait to see Rayden grow up. (I'm also gonna be there when people start making fun of his name...let's face it, at some point Thor might get a little old for him...so I'm gonna be there when he has to fight kids at the play ground! Don't worry Momma, I'm a good scrapper!)
