Thoughts

I'm so thankful that I am surrounded by amazing Christian friends and family. The joy, hope, and love found in Christ shows in the lives of those I am close to.

I'm learning how to ask for help. I like to think I can do it all, but with a 14-month old who is practically running everywhere and talking up a storm and a baby coming in about six weeks, I realize I need to learn how to accept the willingness of others to help.

On that note, thank you to my grandparents who love staying with Addie for a little while so I can go to doctor's appointments. :)

It's getting late (okay, "late" in my world!), so my mind is becoming mush. Here's to hoping I can blog tomorrow and show off some pictures of our little girl who can show you her belly button, head, ears, nose, toes, fingers...can say so many words that it's almost scary when she opens her mouth...but enough braggin' on my girl for now. :)

Smile...forgive others as Christ forgives you...be thankful for what you have and who you have...

Great post!!! I know what you mean about accepting help :) Someone once told me that by declining help, you are taking the joy from the other person who wanted to help. So that helps me out a lot when the offer comes. I can't wait to see pictures!! And I am certainly thankful for your family in our lives!! Love ya tons and tons!!
