The air penetrated by her scream let us know that love was alive.
Praise God for His faithfulness in making hope a reality.
The last day of March 2005 at 11:30 in the morning, the Bryce's welcomed Lizze into our arms. Mom and Dad are pleased now to hold in our arms this girl whom we long ago held in our hearts. Mommy, baby, big brother and Daddy are each doing well. Thanks to each of for your faithfulness in prayer, expressions of love and persistent hope.
Love from Brady, Donna and Nathan.

Donna and I picked this name out long before Nathan was born. We love the stories of Hannah from 1 Samuel 1 and Elizabeth from Luke 2. During the labor, I read these passages to Donna. She said it calmed her down. Of course, I have always been able to put her to sleep when I read to her. Can you imagine what happens when I speak to her?
Elizabeth is Hebrew for "dedicated to God" or "oath to God." Hannah is also Hebrew meaning "grace." Elizabeth was my great-grandmother's name (my Dad's mother's side). She went by the name "Lizzie."
If you wish to write her well-wishes and blessings feel free to post a comment to this entry. We will save them in her baby book.

What an adorable presence.
God has once again revealed himself in the image of His likeness, quiet, soft, absence of hate, full of love, and only requiring the same in return.
I pray that your guardianship of this angel be a joy to your family and glory to her Maker.
May God bless and keep you all the days of your life, Elizabeth Hannah Bryce.
Lizzie is beautiful and is blessed with a wonderful family. May God's Spirit enrich each of you daily. Susan
Lizzie is beautiful! So happy that she has arrived safely! Best wishes and much happiness to you and your family!
Glory Be!! She looks beautiful -- and I am partial to March birthdays - she came 3 days after mine. When I was growing up, it was wonderful to have a birthday
during the Easter season - actually, it still is!
Enjoy!
