Time flies quickly these days and it seems to have shifted into warp speed ever since Evan arrived. Our sweet boy turned one month old on Sunday! He has grown quite a bit since his grand May arrival, now weighing 10 lbs 3 oz and measuring 22.25 inches long. Looks like I’ll end up having two tall and handsome men in my life. 🙂
Eliana grows more beautiful and adventurous every day! She is on the move from the moment she wakes until bedtime. While I’m still learning how to keep up with my gorgeous bundle of energy, I wouldn’t have it any other way! Her zest for life and outgoing demeanor brings a fresh element of surprise to each new day. Eliana askes for Evan first thing each morning, wanting to greet him with hugs and smiles. We’re still teaching her how to gently love on Evan, but there is no question that she adores her little brother. Anytime he cries, Eliana is right there to enthusiastically tell him, “Its okay!”
The past month has been many things: hilarious, emotional, eye-opening, precious, refining, thrilling, exhausting. But above all, it has been a blessing. I could not be more grateful for these two precious children, thankful for their health and humbled that God entrusted such amazing gifts to Jordan and me. I would not trade a single day for anything else in the world!
A Life Of Patience
