these past few days, A has been into family videos again. it's so much fun seeing all of us in this house. i love watching them and so does A. again my the grace of God, not so much heartache, just good memories in this house. yes i miss P and i could just laugh at the things we used to do here and all the crazy things that happened... like a cockroach flying up P's shorts while he was using the bathroom... when i stepped on a lizard, thinking it was a raisin then crying when i found out it was a lizard, A and i cried so hard because P was not home. four women came to check on me to see what happened. ha ha... rats coming into our house and P putting on his shoes to chase it out after locking A and i in our bedroom... me getting locked in our room when i had to pee really bad. i had to take of the hinges from the inside because i had to go so bad. my family and P were laughing so hard... so many more...
the one thing i remembered was my weaner day. P put out a card for me on the table when i woke up from a nap after a week of weaning A. i was sad feeling like my baby was growing up, but was so physically uncomfortable... so P, because he is so sweet, made up weaner day. wrote a card and then we went out to celebrate A growing up and me surviving. i cried reading the card and we had fun that day. as sad as it was to wean my girl, i was happy my husband was so thoughtful. he had taken such good care of me throughout my pregnancy, while i was nursing and even after. weaner day!!! that was a good day.
God's been so good. even my neighbors ask if it's hard to live in the house... but it's really not. i enjoy it and God's just been so good... it doesn't even feel like our house... it just feels like a house for A and me. we're making our own set of good memories, like the one below. A asked me to come and watch her one day outside. when i went out, this is what i saw, so yesterday when she did it, i got my camera. i love that she's so free to do what the kids in the neighborhood are doing.
