Good Morning! Oh man... did we have a night last night. We are tired. Livy got up at 2:30 this morning and didn't go back to sleep until 5a.m. Of course, she is getting out of bed and coming out of her room. She just started doing this last week (with the exception of last night...she slept all night. She always had been a good sleeper. Even has in infant). We remedied her coming out of her room. John put one of those child proof doorknobs on the inside of her door so she couldn't come out. However, I don't think that will fix the problem. Really I believe it's a heart issue and we need to TEACH her to stay in her bed and to obedient, not put a "bandaid" on the situation. I think it will have to come off the door. Plus, if she needed to get out and couldn't that would be bad. That's not safe! The kicker is, even after being up for 2 1/2 hours she STILL wakes up at 7a.m. What the heck! She hasn't been taking long naps anymore. She only naps for about an hour, sometimes an hour and a half (she used to take 2 1/2 hour long naps). If she sleeps much more than that I wake her up. Really, I think she is it's because she can open doors now and abusing freedoms. Most kids her age do this. Just being a two year old. I smell a good nap this afternoon. Anyhoo, I know a lot of you moms have been through this so pray for us. Thanks! Okay..now that I have ranted for a bit I can move on. I love that little tooter!
Ornery...
and precious.
Got some great things happening this week. Thurs. night in women's Bible Study we continue our study of Esther. It's a great study and I love the fellowship with the girls. Then Friday Kim invited me to go see a movie with her. I'm excited about. Sat. morning we have a women's conference and brunch at church. It's called "Live Simple" or is it "Simply Live". Don't remember, but it's gonna be good! This momma gets great "time out", the good kind. Then that same day John's parents are coming, and on Sunday my parents are coming in too. Sunday night John is being ordained as a deacon in our church. He's kinda nervous because he's the only one that will "in the hot seat" so to speak. Pray for him this week. John has such a servant heart and will make a good deacon.
I found this in my prayer journal this quote in my prayer journal this morning. I love this..
"The pathway that lies before me my Heavenly Father knows. I'll trust Him to unfold the moments just as He unfolds the rose."
"For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope."
Jeremiah 29:11 NLT
Love it!
