I won't bore you with a catch up post. It will take several! I don't even want to see when the last time I wrote an actual blog was! Needless to say, we have really been enjoying life around here! This child that we have been blessed with is more fun than we could have ever imagined! We have our moments where I have to remind myself that she's only 20 months old and WE are responsible for teaching her how to react to every situation, but there are many more moments of laughter and joy than frustration and tears! Tonight while I was rocking Mira before bed, I prayed that God would always give me the gentle reminder of how blessed I am to have Mira to care for, and to never let that responsibility become a burden.
The 3 of us are really learning how to work together to be a family. Justin has been working on projects around the house, but it's only a few short weeks before he starts coaching golf, then it's BACK TO SCHOOL already! Mira is really talking up a storm, and is such a fun, silly, quirky kid! I think I solved a mystery we've been having with a new word she's been saying. Bobby=lovey, which is what we call the little blanket she sleeps with. Sometimes is sounds like bubby, but we have not had a clue what she was trying to say, until today when she went it picked it up, and said, "bobby" very matter-of-fact! So the only word mystery now is the phrase, "suby-si". She has been saying this for a very long time, and we have NO idea what it means! I hope she remembers when she's older, so she can enlighten us! lol!
I'll leave it at that, and try to at least update once a week. We might be caught up by Christmas!
Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. James 1:2-3
