Sunday in church we started our worship by watching a video of seven of the 10 baptisms since Easter Sunday. We sang as a congregation while the video was playing. It was very emotional for me. The video was over and we stood to continue singing and I thought to myself, "Whew, can't believe I made it through that without crying." At that exact moment, Piper (whom I was holding) put her little arms around my neck and gave me her first ever hug. I didn't make it through that without crying. It truly was a precious moment. So far, I am the only recipient of them, but I get them often. And they melt my heart every time. I'm sure soon you will all get to experience them!!
And Brenna...well, she just never ceases to amaze us! Last night she was jumping from our ottoman to our big green chair and right before she jumped she said "Here goes nothing." Where do they learn this stuff? We, of course, just cracked up. She is always coming up with stuff like that...uses the 'actually' correctly and with just a bit a sassiness (which usually gets her in trouble)... says 'I don't that is right, mama'...figures out how to do things on her own...etc.
Life is good, and it is the little things that makes it that way.
