We're all stil adjusting to each other. Wade and I are trying to figure out how to deal with our usually well-behaved child who now freaks out over the slightest thing. We're getting grace moment by moment, but it is pretty heart breaking to watch Sophia not know what to do with herself at times. Knowing that you, our family ALL over the world read this blog and love us and pray for us, gives me a sense of community in a way I didn't know technology could provide. We're doing well.
Last night at bedtime, due to an epic freak out the night before, we took things really gently and slowly. We wound up all four of us (4, yep, 4 of us now) in my and Wade's bed. Did stories and then Sophia was nursing and Eleanor was sleeping on Wade. It was moment of absolute bliss after a tiring day and I was so grateful.
I began to pray out out loud, thanking God for all the good things in our lives. I stopped and said to Sophia, "Is there anything you would like to thank God for?" and she pointed to me, tapping on my chest. Touched, I said, "Mummy?" and she said, "No, boobies." Wade said, "Amen."
