I just want to encourage everyone to be the "hands and feet" of Jesus... just as he was the hands and feet of the Lord.
Andon's life was short. Too short for my liking. But perfect. Pure. Just as the Lord planned it to be. I never asked to be a momma to an angel in Heaven... it's not a road I would of chosen for myself if given the opportunity to choose, but it has been a blessing all the same.I know of three babies and momma's whose lives have been spared in the past year b/c they've heard Andon's story. Concidence? I don't believe in "concidences".
I believe in God's divine plan for each of us.
I believe in God's divine plan for each of us.
I believe that He gives us life for a reason and we need to choose to use that life wisely... for Him.
Sometimes it's hard for me to step out of my comfort zone and "be His hands and feet".
I want to do better at this. It's not about my comfort level, it's about bringing people to Him, being as Christ Like as we can, and living out the words in the Bible that we know to be true.
Will you all join me in this? I want to do this EVERY DAY, but I think Andon's birthday is the perfect day to start stepping out in faith even more.
I love each of you. Thank you so much for the support and love you've shown not only to me, but to our entire family over the past year.
Happy Birthday A!
We love you!

You are truly an inspiration to me. I have dark days and reading your blog always brightens them. Thank you for sharing Andons life with us and the pictures are absolutely PERFECT!!!! Enjoy B and soon C and cherish A!!!!
What precious, perfect hands and feet he had. I can't imagine how tough today must be for you, and it's so relieving to know that your hope is still in the Lord. I'm praying for you today...just think...only a few short days until you get to meet your 3rd little angel :)
I looked outside just now and the Sun is Shining!! Must be Jesus and Andon smiling down on you guys! Happy Birthday to your angel baby!
You are an amazing woman and mommy!! I believe you will continue to touch/inspire even more people every day. There is a reason for everything:) Thinking of you even more today!
Happy Birthday Andon! I still think of you and how you changed my life almost daily. Thank you Chelsa for sharing him with us.
Happy Birthday to Mr. A! You are wonderful and I am amazed by your strength and the love that you share with those around you. You are such an inspiration. Chelsea, I've been wanting to do something for you for a while. I added a couple of boys diaper wipes cases to my site and will be adding a couple more tomorrow. I know it's not much, but it would bring me such pleasure to send you one if there is one you like. Here's the link...

...just let me know which one you would want.
Happy birthday Andon!!! Well said Chelsa...you are such a special woman =)
Thinking of you today and thankful for the strong, beautiful person you are, a woman who knows and loves God. Thanks for sharing your heart.
Awesome! I actually thought of you when I saw that fabric! Send me your address to shaunannew@yahoo.com and I will send it out sometime next week :). Have a beautiful day Chelsea!
What a great momma Andon has!! Thinking of you today.
Thank you for sharing your heart. It is your testimony from God and you so eloquently display it. How precious!
Chelsa, your words and caring heart are an inspiration to me. We lost a little grandson when he was 11 mo. old and it does change your outlook in life. You now have a special treasure in heaven and someday will be reunited with Andon forever. Keep on trusting God and being those "hands and feet". Wishing a belated birthday to a special little angel. (Cole will celebrate his 11th birthday in May)
Chelsa, Thank you for sharing. I thought of you often yesterday. Happy Birthday, Andon!
This was so beautifully written - the words and the pictures just touched me so much. And made me ache for you. You are quite a vessel that God has chosen to use, although I know you wouldn't have asked for it in a million years. Your faith encourages me all the time! Love you!!
i agree.....this post is absolutely beautiful! You are honoring that precious little boy of yours by making his life count!! What a gift!
