Familiar waiting...

So I realized today that this process of waiting to hear if we are going back is VERY similar to waiting to see if we are pregnant. Thankfully, THIS process has a definate end (=

I just remember the attempts to not be consumed with the topic, finding a balance for a few weeks, being wrapped in the 'what-ifs' as the date nears and then dealing with the fall-out after that date passes with no change. it's not quite as emotional which is helpful.

Layla's Nana comes in tomorrow for about 5 days. That will be a good distraction. Mom and Dad leave for Asia from February 12 -28 so that will be a big change of pace. Layla will certainly miss them, as will I!

Layla has gotten very kissy and huggy lately which is fun. If she realizes she's headed to bed without a kiss, she says "I forgot a big kiss!"
She has also taken to reading books while in the car - that is a big help! During her reading naps in the morning she reads outloud with great enthusiasm. It is great fun to listen to her and I'm very grateful for her willingness to do the reading nap everyday.

In the last two weeks Tom and I have been able to join up with a few small groups etc at church and that makes things feel more normal (=
