Family and Prayer

My family –

Caden is doing really well. He grew up overnight. It made me cry to see my little boy, who is no longer a baby! He's been a great helper and is having fun getting to know his little sister (playing with her feet, holding her hands, snuggling her face, talking to her...) Sooo precious!

Emberly is doing great. She's sleeping and eating well. I forgot how not fun engorgement was. Word to the wise: it will get better! So far she's adapting well and is a wonderful addition to our family. She's finally here!!! And not to mention the fact that she is absolutely beautiful!

Michael was sick once we got home from the hospital. Really sick! He had a high fever and other cold-like symptoms, so with a new baby at home he quarantined himself away from all of us for 4 days. It was not fun!!!

My Mom was able to stay with us and was a huge help with Caden, Em and the house!!! I would have gone crazy if she hadn't been here. Thank you!!!

My prayer –

Thank you God for my family. Thank you for a fast and safe delivery of my baby girl. Watch over my children as they grow, protect them from the evil one and draw them to you. Help Michael and I to be good parents, setting good examples for Caden and Em and showing them how to love. Give me patience (I know I need it) and help me to be selfless.
