Paige's First Birthday & Dedication

Paige had her 1st birthday this past Saturday at a local park and was dedicated this past Sunday. She had a great time. I would like to thank everyone who has played a role in her life this past year and for supporting Chris and I as new parents. We feel truly blessed to have such awesome friends and family. I know that you all have busy lives and many of you traveled a long way to be a part of this special day. It was neat to have friends as young as 2 weeks old and grandma's and grandpa's all there to be with little Paige. I love how God is always there and knows the perfect people to have enter your lives at the perfect time. The morning of Paige's party I prayed that God would make it overcast but not rain. God listened and graciously answered that prayer. I know this is a little thing but it just reminds me that such a big God cares about the little things too. Lately there has unfortunately been a number of child tragedies and it is a reminder to me how thankful I am for the health of Paige and all of her little friends. We love you all and thank God for you!

I know that everyone wants to see pictures and not read deep thoughts by Katie, but I didn't take any pictures so I will post pics once I receive them from friends.

I was so happy to get to join you for Paige's birthday party and dedication. She is just so precious. The Starkey clan has been busy. Last Monday Alyssa interviewed for a teaching job in Little Rock, Tues. she was offered the job and accepted it and then Friday she found an apartment and this weekend we moved her to Little Rock. When God moves...He moves fast!! Love to all, Aunt Aleecia
