gave birth

Today is Sarah's 6 month birthday. Really where has the time gone? I can't believe it's already been 6 months since I gave birth to this precious little miracle! While in actuality 6 months isn't a long time, it does seem like she's always been here. Those of you who have children probably know what I mean. While she is new, she fits so perfectly in the family that it's like she's always been around. This is a time of great reflection for me. I think back to those days when we didn't think we would be able to have more children and to that day when I found out I was expecting. I remember those first few weeks home with her and all the adjustments that had to be made. And now to today, all the things she can do and who she is. She's found her feet She loves to jump. She could jump for hours. Even when she starts to get tried of it she still jumps while she's whining to get out.She's found her thumb. The little stinker :) She such a mix of both our older girls, it's amazing! We wondered, when we were expecting her, what she would be like because Abigail and Leah are complete opposites. Well we got a little of both of them in her. She loves her sisters! She thinks they are so funny especially Abbi. The girls are great with her and are so helpful. The most wonderful thing I love about her is her snuggliness. She loves to rest her head on my shoulder/chest and she loves it when we are cheek to cheek and I talk to her. She giggles this most wonderful giggle. I can't thank the Lord enough for her. And during this time of the year when we celebrate Christ's birth I also thank Him for sending His son to die for us.
