After Mom and Dad left, I didn't know how we were going to survive..! But Mom hugged me and whispered in my ear that we would be thriving soon and that we could do it.
Logan is the best little helper. He's such a good boy. We braved the streets of Berlin with bribery snacks in my pockets. Logan listened and helped push the stroller or held my hand tight while we walked to Rewe and the post office.
He used to run away from me in the grocery stores. Now, he follows me around and loves to put the groceries in our stroller basket and on the checkout counter. <3
I love him!!
& her. Emery has such a calm spirit. She rarely cries and is such a good baby.
My December days were spent trying to daily clean and organize the house, have lots of one-on-one play time with Logan, hold Emery as much as I can, find alone time, journal, read various church material, eat three meals, and remember to go to the bathroom.. Ha!!
I felt overwhelmed and my mind was racing. I wasn't present because I was always focused on what I wasn't doing enough of. Justin told me to focus on one or two priorities a day. That helped immensely. They change each day, but I feel much more peace knowing I'm doing what's important to me each day.
Logan has been a champ at this adjustment and I'm so grateful for the love she shows to Emery.
It's been a good adjustment and I finally feel in my groove. It took a few pretty low, hard days to get the communication channels flowing with Justin and I'm so thankful for his constant love. We can do anything together. <3
& always grateful when the Berlin sunshine decides to come out.
