Living life at the speed of light

Life has been a whirlwind since I returned to work. Here is brief summary of what happened in the last 30 days...

Maddie
  • Turned 2 months old
  • Stats: 23 inches long and weighed 11 pounds and 7 oz
  • Started sleeping through the night with a fussy period around 3 am
  • First ER visit
  • Now enjoys "talking" and "playing" with her toys

Luke

  • Promoted out of the toddler room and is hanging with the "big" kids
  • Obsessed with Star Wars and Darth Vader but still loves Batman
  • The consequence of no TV now "inspires" obedience ;)
  • Realized that saying, "I love you, Mommy" will melt her heart and turn away wrath
  • Turned 3 years-old on August 21st



Misti
  • Memorizing and meditating on scripture while stuck in traffic has replaced the regularly scheduled quiet time
  • Tried once to cultivate a love for running
  • Watched our small group apprentices start leading their own group
  • 5 volunteer trainings + 2 GroupLink events = 824 adults connected into community
  • Basically, I'm loving God, my family and my ministry but wishing for more sleep :)
