ATL

What a wonderful weekend! We took Grace with us for our trip to Atlanta with our youth group. It was so much fun and she was perfect! She is so easy to travel with and really enjoys being around different people and seeing new things. We stopped at Papcito's in Atlanta for a delicious Mexican dinner! It was so good and the atmosphere is amazing. It was Matt's birthday, so the mariachi band sang "Sweet Home Alabama" to him. It was hilarious! Then we left and went shopping at Atlantic Station, which was a neat experience. We went into West Elm and fell in love with so many things.

Mothering

I've learned so much about God's grace and redeeming love from just being your mom. Each day I learn what grace truly is and pray that I can pour His grace out on you by the way I react and respond to you. I love you more than words can say. You can now say dadda and momma and they both melt my heart. I'm not sure you know who is who, but I will happily respond to dadda. You are crawling everywhere, and with such remarkable speed! You are totally fascinated with doors, water and Cheerios. Your taste buds are changing and things you once loved like sweet potatoes, no longer interest you. You really enjoy biscuits and gravy now. Also, guacamole, ice cream and refried beans with cheese. A girl after my own heart!
