Sweet times...Lord continue to teach me

Days around our house have gotten sweeter these days. I am still not sure what God's purpose is in us losing our baby, but I know that there have been a few changes in me. I am enjoying some extra special time with my girls. Things like reading books, curling hair, coloring etc have taken on a whole new light for me. I am finding that I am spending more time doing with them rather than shooing them while I complete a task. I'm not sure how this is all occurring, but I am still keeping on task with my everyday chores etc., but I am just loving my time with the girls. God is keeping me strong about the loss of the baby too. I am having to answer occasional questions and listen to occasional cries from Stephanie and Katie about the baby's death(none of which are brought up by myself or Chris). My girls have always just seemed to have impecable memories. I guess that God is using this to help us teach Stephanie and Katie that we don't always know why things happen and things aren't always as happy as we want them to be, but we still have to trust God. That is a hard lesson for a mature adult, much less a 5 and 3 year old(of course they only can comprehend so much of it). Anyway, I just thought that I would share a little of what God is doing in us as a family. We are still waiting to see what God has in store for us. We know that no matter what it is it will be great. Because we serve a GREAT, GREAT God.
