Hopefully, even though it doesn't feel like I have changed, I have. I pray that I gain a tiny ounce of patience a day...that I feel more love for Emery than annoyance when she wakes up at night and needs her nuk to go back to sleep...that I'll feel thankful that I can get up with Emery at night so that my husband can get a good nights sleep so in turn he can have a good day at work...I guess what all that boils down to is that hopefully, while I feel like I'm not changing and Emery is changing by the minute, that I am indeed changing. That the Lord is using this beautiful gift as a way to chip away at my selfishness.
It's amazing how quickly a child changes. They are learning so many things all the time while I feel like nothing changes for me. I'm still the same old Megan, while my baby girl has discovered how to roll to her side, how to wiggle around so she is never in the spot I put her down in, how to grab her toes, how to use her little fingers, how to make mommy and daddy laugh like crazy, how to drive mommy and daddy crazy, how to laugh and giggle, how to sit up on her own, how to "talk", how to grab on to her bunny or kitty, how to fake cough to get even more attention..... the list goes on and on. It's so amazing watching her grow. As she is growing and changing she is getting cuter and cuter. I don't know how she does it. She is a little sweetheart and I'm so thankful for her! Her 4 mo picture almost makes me want to go wake her up from her nap and just squeeze her! Almost... There is no way I'm waking her up from her nap just yet :)

I was just going to say, God is changing you inwardly! For sure! It's so encouraging. :)

Megan FremontI'm a Christian. I'm a wife to a wonderful man and a mother to a sweet little girl and a handsome little man. I've lived in MT, MN, KS, CA, N.Z., I like to travel. I love dark chocolate and coffee. I grew up on a farm and never learned to drive stick, I went to a two-room school house for nine years, I love Fall in MN (except for the fact I'm always cold), I miss the Montana Sky, and I'm new to blogging.
