Update & Things I Love!

WOW--I've been slackin', huh?! It's been awhile...as in so much "awhile" that there has been some huge news in our lives and time for an update! Not long after I posted my last Easter post, we found out some interesting news. Justin had been telling me for a week or so but I was in denial, I guess...we came back from a short vacay and I took a little test-->we're having another baby! Life changed quickly in those very short seconds it took for the two little lines to come up, but it's been very sweet. So, we'll have two more hands to hold in early December! We're intrigued to see how Colby does with a little baby brother or sister but my gut is telling me all will be ok.

On to more things. I appreciate Colby more and more each day. The little things HE teaches ME (isn't it supposed to be the other way around?) just absolutely baffle me. As he's become more confident in his abilities to do anything, he's struck a bit of an independent streak. But there's something that makes me smile even more. When he's not completely sure he can do it...he looks for me and my hand. He still needs me--and he knows it.

I know God's the same way. He loves to watch me grow. As I learn to trust Him and the strength and gifts He's given me, my wings grow and I'm confident in my ability through Him. But I still need Him. I need the Lord to show me where's that better path, to teach me the new things He has for me to learn...I still need Him and I'll always need him! And I know it. :o)
