I have mentioned that Noa has named her favorite baby doll “baby Selah” after our friends, Liz and Yuya’s new baby. Selah Kaye Kuwahara was born in November and is just as cute as can be. I wanted to post a photo of her preciousness. Isn’t she perfect??

We are so thankful for her life and the family she has been born into. Yuya and Liz are a fabulous couple who have such a heart for seeing God’s kingdom grow here in Japan. They are already great parents and Selah is so blessed to have them for her mom and dad.
And we are so blessed to have them as friends. I especially, am so thankful for God placing Liz in my life and the friendship and accountability and companionship that He has provided through her. Even though we may not live in Japan together for much longer, I pray that God keeps us close and continues to bless both of us through this friendship in years to come. And I am so glad that we get to be moms together now.
Noa, who is obsessed with both baby Selahs, is also really enjoying be a mom with us. After I took the above picture, Noa wanted the doll baby Selah in on the photo shoot too. Here is the picture she had me take of her doll:
(yes, i just took up precious internet space to post a photo of a doll… I did it for Noa, who takes great pride in her baby
