Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words.....and this one represents so much. Naomi has never been a fan of dressing up, in any fashion. Last Halloween, her first, she did not care for any of the (many) costumes we tried. And since then we have tried over and over for her to dress up. Today was a breakthrough. I pulled out the dress and she put it right on -saying princess over and over. It was precious. I grabbed the camera a took as many photos as I could - little did I know, it only was gonna last 4 minutes. Then it came off, it was too "itchy".
So hard to believe she will be 3 in a matter of weeks. She has been in our arms for almost 2 years and has come so far. To hear her sweet voice talk and pronounce words and even some sentences has been so nice! The meltdowns are fewer and the progress she has made encourages us with Norah, knowing she will soon be talking and able to communicate better.
Some days are.....well, hard. And today would qualify as one of those. But I am thankful that the Lord's mercies are new each morning and that tomorrow the sun will rise and thus begin a new day. Off to bed....sleep well. Sweet dreams!!
