Miracles

I haven't mentioned this, because I'm not sure if it's strange or not, but I cannot remember being so crazy for, head over heels, so in love with our other babies like we are with Kamdyn.  Of course, I adored each of them, but it's just a little different this time.  I think the miracle of life and each accomplishment is much more real and significant to me this time. 

She's working on sitting up right now.

Not quite...........  She'll get it.

Kamdyn has been eating solids for a couple of months now.  At first, it was pretty sloppy, but she did it.  Then, she would swallow ok, but I had to push her tongue down with the spoon to get the food in her mouth.  A couple weeks ago, I was feeding her sweet potatoes.  Each time I brought the spoon up, she opened her mouth as wide as it would go and chomped her sweet little apple cheeked jaw around that spoon. 

I thought it was a flook, so I just kept feeding and watching.  With each bite, tears just welled up and filled my eyes until they couldn't hold anymore.  And there I was standing in front of her with tears just running down my face, because she was eating.  Stupid, right?  With tears soaking my face, I called Brad and said, " You have to see this."  It felt so good that she had figured it out, that she accomplished that.  I've never felt that way or had that type of reaction to something like that.  It just means so much more now.  Life means more.  Each blessing from God means more.  Kamdyn has taught me that. 

It's so easy to take things for granted.  To not see the beauty in every day.  I don't want to walk by miracles and not notice anymore.  Thank you God for giving me Kamdyn, so that I can see miracles again.
