Life



Obviously things have been busy and different around here. Both not necessarily bad. My body is taking a lot longer to recover, which gets frustrating at times, but I keep reminding myself that considering all that happened, I am doing great. I do have an infection again and the doctor is blasting it out with some meds. I really pray it will be done soon so we can get onto life.

Onto Clara... she's great. We love our new family member and are so thankful she is here. I can't believe 5 weeks have gone by and yet the last 5 weeks have felt like an eternity at times. Clara has begun to smile at us. She really likes to smile at Samantha. Of course this thrills Sammie.

The girls are adjusting well. Molly seems much happier and at ease. Both girls are sleeping better. And we all feel settled.

So all in all, life is good. God is good. And I am continually reminded that life can be taken away at any moment, so enjoy it now. Life really is a gift. And we should be serving and giving to others. But also not to forget that God has given us giggles, smiles, cuddle time, coloring time, book time, talking time, and toy time all to enjoy.

Boy do I hear ya, sister! I am busy here as well...and I only have two! Glad you are enjoying your new little one as much as we are enjoying ours! Time goes by so fast...I understand the part where you said that 5 weeks seems like an eternity. Doesn't it seem like we wish it goes faster but then we wish that it doesn't????

She is ADORABLE!!! Congrats again.
