Emme with Big Daddy and Mimi Princess Emme Emme and Mimi
“It’s a Girl!”

Those are words that I’ve never heard in a delivery room referring to a Purvis child. We have boys. Can’t help it. Don’t regret it. It’s just that way. I identify well with those Bible characters who had boy after boy.

Last Wednesday all of that changed. My middle son Brent and his wife Carrie placed in my arms a little new born girl named Emme Reese Purvis. I had no words except, “Wow.” I have many nieces all of whom we see at Christmas, Thanksgivings and throughout the year, that I love and they love their “Uncle Bill”. Maybe God was preparing us for this with them.

Emme is beautiful, with a head full of thick black hair, sleeping in my arms and squeezing my finger with her tiny hand the whole time. I’m blessed.

Debbie and I have been living the “Dream Life” for the past few years. So many big blessings and favors from God have come to us so often that our daily prayer life these days is more of thanks than request.

Now we have 2 grandchildren, Prince Beau (6 mo.) and Princess Emme. If having a thankful heart pleases God, then we’re there for sure. God has been good to us.
