Well folks a glorious past two days. I really could bore you with all the amazing details of every time that Baby alex, the new LOVE of my life coos, laughs, makes the cutest faces. I am sooo in love and little baby Alex has me wrapped around his little finger!! every day I am more in awe of God’s love for us to as I hold Alex and contemplate the glory of LIFE!!
So yesterday the precious little one got to go home to his house. It was so fun to be apart of that ( and hilarous when todd and i were leaving to take some things to the car and the front desk nurse freaked out thinking i was michelle leaving wtihout checking out). I actually got to be alex’s first babysitter to while michelle and todd had to go to a hospital discharge class. !!
Then today I got to go back to where I went to grad school and see everyone. It was such a blessing. My grad school felt like such a family while I was there and still does and it was something I missed very much. I realize that is odd because most people don’t view their grad school as a family, but PSI is just that.. and I used to work there so I realloy missed everyone. It was glorious to go there and hang out, then go back and see my beautiful nephew again.
Then tonight was such a TREAT. one I went to one of my favorite southern homecooking restraunts tonight and had fried okra, sweet potatoes , porkchops.. yum yum…then my mom’s family came. I got to see my aunt laura and my granddad and my cousins. It was such God’s gift to me because when I said goodbye to my grandparents who i love soo much I did not know if I would see them again until heaven. I did not get to see my grandmother again as she went to be with Jesus 3 weeks after I arrived in nepal.. but tonight I was runined with my grandfather and it was a GLORIOUS moment.. and well me and my crazy aunt are already laughing so hard that my poor sister thought she might pop her stitches or soething. I am the most blessed girl in the world.
Everyone asks me if I am enjoying the THINGS and the food here.. I realized that those things have been nice.. i mean i have enjoyed the hot showers, but 2 mornings I even did not take one because I wanted to get to go visit alex faster. I realized that family is such a gift from the lord and I am enjoying EVERY minute of that. Why do people think our God is not good. I pray today that you celebrate with me the gift of who God is!!
Jenn,
Every time I read your blogs about baby Alex and look at all the pictures of his sweet family, I find my smile getting bigger and bigger. Then when I come to the end of your entry, I feel silly because I’m sitting here at my computer with this huge grin on my face.
Thank you for being so generous with the photos of this special time in your life. It allows us all the opportunity to share in your joy and your praise to God.
Love you bunches,
Sandra
