The women our girls are named after!!!


Nora Elizabeth Drinkwater went into the presence of our Lord on September 7, 2007. Our oldest daugher will be named Nora Yegile Snow, after her Great Granny who loved the Lord with all that was within her. What a blessing to be with her in her last moments, she was so ready to see Jesus. Granny was a precious gift to our family and we thank the Lord for her sweet and faithful spirit, that we'll share with our girls.
Diana Carol Johnson went into the presence of our Lord on December 6, 2011. Our second oldest girl will be named Diana Zenash Snow. The last couple of years the Lord really grew my sweet friendship with this precious saint. She truly discipled me and spoke truth into my life that I'm forever grateful for. Before Diana's passing this year she prayed and prayed with me for the little girl we would be adopting, she couldn't wait to meet her. Our prayer is our girls would come to know Christ and meet Diana in heaven. Who would of thought it would have been three gifts from our Lord. Her faith was fearless, and led many to our Savior! 
 
Kristina Jewell Schlegel went into the presence of our Lord on February 14, 2007. Our littlest daughter will be named Kristina Tsgereda Snow. My sweet and dear friend  passed away with stage 4 breast cancer. She had the biggest and brightest smile of anyone I've ever known. She truly lived a life that pointed others to Christ. Please go to her website and read more about the life of one of my closest friends- http://www.kristinascalling.com/ and http://www.caringbridge.com/visit/kristina . You will be blessed by reading her journal entry's on  her caringbridge site. Even in death God is using my sweet friends life to bring people to Him...

We love giving our girls names of women that truly lived lives that drew others to Christ.

"Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His faithful servants."
Psalm 116:15

We will say our girls names with such sweet memories of faithful women!!!
