So Blessed

It's been a very busy summer! We had a lot of family come to visit us. Most recently my grandparents came all the way from Mississippi. Ava got to meet another set of her great grandparents. She fell in love with them and they fell in love with her too. We hadn't gotten to see them in almost a year, so it was really nice to spend some quality time together.

I just rocked Ava to sleep for her midday nap. I couldn't think of anything to sing to her and then all the sudden I decided on Silent Night. After I sang through it two times her eyes had already drifted off to sleep and I became overwhelmed with an extreme sense of joy and love. The moment brought me to tears and I couldn't sing anymore. I held her in my arms and thanked God for sending her to us. I'm the most happy I've been in such a long time.

I know I've had huge gaps in my blogging, I'll try to get better about it!
