Life Update

 It has been over a year since I made an entry here. Motherhood and homemaking has made me very busy, that on top of having a full-time job as a nurse. To have the free time to write here is a God-given luxury courtesy of our "online babysitter" Miss Rachel's Songs For Littles on YouTube TV. 

So how am I holding up, you might ask? I am trying. Some days are good, other days are hard. But isn't that what life is about, right? Whether you're a single woman or a homemaker. 

Nicolo is 14 months old now. I know. I speak like those typical moms who count their children's ages in months and not years. 'Oh my baby is now 18 months'. In my mind I would be like, 'Cool. Thanks for giving us a math problem.'. Funny how I do that too, now. So yes, Nicolo is now 14 months. 

A little over a year and I cannot believe how much he's grown. For someone so little, Nicolo is such a powerhouse. He's learned how to walk (during our 3 weeks stay in the Philippines he did). Oh yes, we went home home for 3 weeks to have our families see Nicolo for the first time. (I would have wrote a different entry on that if I only had the time). He is also perpetually drooling; almost everything he holds he puts into his mouth, and he is a very picky eater (to my dismay, but not a shocker, because I was too when I was his age). 

I would finish this entry but apparently the little monster wants a bottle now -- he looks cranky. I better go.



You Can Never Outgrow God

  Do you think you can outgrow your God? Do you think because your situation now in life is different, feels much harder than those you face...
