I have been sitting here thinking of all of the things that occur in three and a half months time. I go from the end of one school year to the beginning of another....well into the beginning of another because summer vacations are no longer three months long. Seasons change..winter, spring, summer, fall. You complete a trimester of pregnancy. If you are me you can put on and take off ten pounds over and over again!
But nothing is any bigger miracle than the changes in a newborn in three and a half months. I have forgotten, or else when it is your own child you see the changes occur gradually and maybe you are not as amazed by it all. I have been lucky enough to see
Brooklynn about once a month since she was born. I have a son and
daughter in law that provide multiple updates
every week. But to go back and see where she has come in this short amount of time is nothing short of miraculous. From a tiny newborn to a baby who has just made incredible strides and and is progressing so much every single day.
They will be home this week. I cannot wait to see them....all of them. They will be visiting their house at the lake. It is their first house and it will be the first time they will spend the night there together as a family. By next summer
Brooklynn will be running across the yard and mom and dad will be running behind to make sure she doesn't get too near the water or put some foreign object in her mouth. Those are big changes yet to come but I am not sure they will compare to the progress made in the first 3 1/2 months.
