"I go to bed and sleep in peace. Lord, only You keep me safe."
-Psalm 4:8
We'll try to get it on video, but wanted to share this with you. Every night we read from one of three books before bed. Whenever there is a verse we have her repeat after us as we read it. Last night Josh started reading on the following page and skipped over the verse page. So Shelby said: "Daddy, I go" ... and we were thinking "What is this girl saying?" Then I remembered the page before had the normal verse we read. Josh turned to that page and she said the whole verse by herself! It was amazing! These little kiddos are just like sponges, soaking up so much that we don't even realize. LOVE IT!!!!
It's hard to believe, but I am about 32 weeks! Just 8 weeks to go. My downfall - food wise - has been cinnamon Teddy Grahams and trail mix (my special blend). Surprisingly the last two doctor visits my doctor has told me it is ok to gain more weight. I am not trying to, but I am sure I will over the next 8 weeks.
Josh is working on painting Shelby's dresser today. I think it will look nice. A friend of ours (Thanks Tammy!) is picking up some more curtains for Shelby's room for us. Once we get the curtains up we'll share a picture of her room with her bedding and the bed frame that Josh made for her. Then I can start on the baby's room. :) I know that I say "I" a lot, but most of the time it is Josh doing the work. He is such a great daddy!
Shelby! You are sooooo smart! That is wonderful that you can say that Bible verse all by yourself. I love you so much and I had so much fun talking to you tonight. Wish you were here to talk to me everyday. :) Wouldn't that be fun? Maybe next time we talk you will say your Bible verse for me - OK? Love you!
