Another Month

Sweetest Naomi,

How has another month flown by? You're 10.5 months now. I can hardly believe it. Life with you isn't what I thought it'd be, but I know it's going to keep getting more incredible.

People may think we are foolish to believe you're going to restored to perfection, to the way the Lord really created you, on earth as it is in heaven, but we won't stop believing and petitioning and hoping and praying and praising the Lord for all He has done in your life and all He will do. We will see it, Naomi! You will live it, Naomi!

The days have been long, but the months have flown by. You'll be one next month and I'm having a difficult time thinking about it. I pray and hope you'll be the one year old I know you're supposed to be. Whatever that day holds for us, we will celebrate.

You're sleeping ever so soundly by me now. Your dad is at band practice. I'm wondering if you actually sleep at night or if you just lay contently in your crib all night only to sleep all day. I keep asking the Lord for a more predictable schedule. He hasn't granted me my expectations of that, but I sure hope He does.

I love you, my darling girl. You have taught me not to take a thing for granted. You are strong. You are powerful.

xoxo,

Mommy
