Merry Christmas! <div><br /></div><div>When the boys woke, they went into my parents room and Lee and I didn't even know they were awake! They didn't want to come in our room and wake Olive, which I guess worked out because Olive didn't sleep well and probably needed the sleep. And I think my parents really enjoyed the sweet moments with them before anyone else woke. I eventually heard them around 7:30 and when they didn't come in to us, I went to find them. They hung these little mini stockings in their room all month long and wanted them to be filled and even remembered to bring them to my parents for Christmas Eve! So, I filled them. They woke and brought them into my parents room and were looking at what they got when I found them. They were so excited and sweet and couldn't wait to go downstairs. Olive was still asleep, so we let her sleep a little bit longer before eventually waking her. <br /><div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1vZu4hURTIPBC6U9MAbc-b4e4TKhmppDw" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1vZu4hURTIPBC6U9MAbc-b4e4TKhmppDw" style="height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=14IdciM23uvZN3a_MxefBk5iAJ5WDThii" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=14IdciM23uvZN3a_MxefBk5iAJ5WDThii" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I forgot to take a stairs picture, I took a video and just totally forgot.

After he read, he also prayed thanking God for sending Jesus and over our day. I love love love hearing kids pray. I love hearing how they think about God, how they believe in Him, what they think to say, etc. It always builds up my faith. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">After he read and prayed we opened stockings. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1hEB0etHmCi9O1sCTqDvlLWBGhCOlfO-k" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1hEB0etHmCi9O1sCTqDvlLWBGhCOlfO-k" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1K1pZs3tb5XWa-Q8PX_Hqr71zS7nXiCBC" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1K1pZs3tb5XWa-Q8PX_Hqr71zS7nXiCBC" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1xWtOPKIeGZoRFiuQAAXV2IPiv4BrxlWo" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1xWtOPKIeGZoRFiuQAAXV2IPiv4BrxlWo" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Normally, I like to get a picture of them with their stockings in front of the tree before they open them, but I forgot.

I wasn't sure if she would be into it or get over stimulated by it- but she loved it. She opened well, wanted each toy opened from the packaging immediately, and then kept asking for "mo!" (more). She also seemed to love every single thing she opened, which made it extra fun. I always love watching the boys open gifts because they receive so excitedly. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Her first real Barbie!

The boys were super curious to see if he was the real Santa. Luca brought a letter he received from Santa earlier this season to ask if he wrote it and he also asked about the gift he gave to Comet. Other than that, both boys froze and didn’t say much at all! (One question Jack wanted to ask was how Cabela’s reached him in the North Pole about this job.) They both decided he wasn’t the real Santa, they said he didn’t look like him and he answered Luca’s questions “suspiciously.” It was a fun and memorable afternoon, with the Santa visit and it was also the boys first visit to Cabela’s- they were in awe of that place! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=17Y2e2iEGsKw19MjJx6vukmQNIgNsFqpM" alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=17Y2e2iEGsKw19MjJx6vukmQNIgNsFqpM" style="font-size: 12pt; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; height: auto; width: auto;"><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1YUHx6-GG5CETHksR15622U4_UjscOosz" alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1YUHx6-GG5CETHksR15622U4_UjscOosz" style="font-size: 12pt; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; height: auto; width: auto;"><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1vUNMQXCi8W_sFqTO0HKwuMMC04okW926" alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1vUNMQXCi8W_sFqTO0HKwuMMC04okW926" style="font-size: 12pt; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; height: auto; width: auto;"><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1314646lhSMeowVNZatt7a15rbMh--Rjq" alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1314646lhSMeowVNZatt7a15rbMh--Rjq" style="font-size: 12pt; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; height: auto; width: auto;"><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1Plmoau-1VVZTPhtQwxcyMF86Q91OjLtl" alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1Plmoau-1VVZTPhtQwxcyMF86Q91OjLtl" style="font-size: 12pt; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; height: auto; width: auto;"><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1P65W5NUVh6Wy58mMTbkU7etSkO5DCrz6" alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1P65W5NUVh6Wy58mMTbkU7etSkO5DCrz6" style="font-size: 12pt; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; height: auto; width: auto;"><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br></div><div style="text-align: left;">Olive did great!

Our elf, Miracle, watches our family and reports back to Santa how he can be praying for us this holiday season. I changed the narrative a little bit because the emphasis on good/bad reporting is why I’ve never been a huge fan of the idea.

I had a lot of fun spending time with my family and keeping our agenda to a minimum so that we could enjoy the slow nature of the day. Looking back, I am extra grateful for how we spent this day now especially since I now know that it was the last day we got to all be together before the illness struck and our plan for the week and holiday went out the window and my sisters eventually went back home. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I was so looking forward to my sisters' visit, and while I know they came for Thanksgiving, it just felt like the sweetest bonus that they also got to be here for my mom's and my birthday. It was just what my heart needed this year, and it felt like the best gift to get to have that.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I started the day reading and praying before anyone woke. I prayed specifically that I would see God’s hand and nearness all around me the entire day, then I opened the blinds and saw the sunrise sky and I gasped. It was the most beautiful shade of purple I’ve ever seen. I walked out on the balcony and stood there in awe. He answered my prayer so quickly! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1fbYU4ttABWryCkYLFBtJyi4Pz61h8jNx" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1fbYU4ttABWryCkYLFBtJyi4Pz61h8jNx" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /> </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I went to the gym where they programmed a special birthday workout for me (per Lee's request). The workout made me teary when I first saw it because it was all single arm dumbbell work and that is all I can do while my arm heals. I love going to the gym, I love being apart of a class, I love crossfit! But it can feel a bit lonely when you can't do what everyone else is doing and you have to modify or change what was written based on a limitation. It's familiar territory with pregnancy and postpartum, and one I don't always love. So when I read the workout and saw that everyone would be using one dumbbell too I was so touched and excited! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">And as a bonus, my sister joined class and worked out beside me! That was the best. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=10j4WfV2AVZkvkguRqWEv5UbZgBBfBU_x" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=10j4WfV2AVZkvkguRqWEv5UbZgBBfBU_x" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">We have been working on a squat cycle, and this was the first day I could do it again. I got the green light to lift heavy when squatting from the rack, so I was PUMPED to load up my barbell. I took it a bit easy since it was my first time, but my arm held up great and I can't wait to do this again and go heavier. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1xvmNtCRm1drdStF3NmRh6dnC2Wku2OmH" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1xvmNtCRm1drdStF3NmRh6dnC2Wku2OmH" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1YmoxOiOhLhmWrm0vhJ_gEOSWy9Qzh7iu" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1YmoxOiOhLhmWrm0vhJ_gEOSWy9Qzh7iu" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">My best girl and gym buddy. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1_XEmaEjD_bC5GUEbn1SscDJapIYLIP4S" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1_XEmaEjD_bC5GUEbn1SscDJapIYLIP4S" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">The workout was written to alternate between arms with the single dumbbell, but I couldn't do that quite yet so I did the entire workout with just my right arm and it was NO JOKE. My right tricep was sore for a lot of days after, but I was determined to use that 35# dumbbell as close to what was written as possible. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1U2YCmCVklI72--6ezVNjJx4T6m1tGfCA" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1U2YCmCVklI72--6ezVNjJx4T6m1tGfCA" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">My mom and Lee coordinated what we'd eat and who would make what. I had no idea what it would look like and was kind of thrilled about that. I had a really hard time thinking through birthday details, and I was so glad Lee picked up on that and made decisions for me. I really love when I don't have to make a decision, in general. My one request that I knew I wanted was the type of birthday cake I wanted to eat. I look forward to it all year! My mom and Jamya made it this morning and sent me this.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1QDWsIqEnJxFFGIM7F-gs7MOhR4A0lezg" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1QDWsIqEnJxFFGIM7F-gs7MOhR4A0lezg" style="height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">After the gym, I treated the boys to donuts and grabbed myself a birthday treat (a chai latte and pumpkin chocolate chip muffin). Once we got home, I did some tidying up, showered, facetimed my sister, and answered some texts. Then my friend Krista stopped over to say happy birthday and we got to chat for a bit (which was such a good conversation!) before H and the kids came over. I made us lunch then we went for a walk so I could get my steps in. Other than needing to get laundry done, the only thing I really wanted to do on my birthday was to get my walk in. It is quickly becoming my new favorite part of each day. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1PsAtR6bnl3c9mHYR2Nsk9GF1Bv3ClfcS" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1PsAtR6bnl3c9mHYR2Nsk9GF1Bv3ClfcS" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1zwK9O5KfyNTPGbCzhFsGDGwTOjYe04Xw" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1zwK9O5KfyNTPGbCzhFsGDGwTOjYe04Xw" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1mf_7dccQJMCs0MWK6ohECU-gx2QP6MuA" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1mf_7dccQJMCs0MWK6ohECU-gx2QP6MuA" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1UG6RXAwH68UeQq8RnQvKllF5thobjLs7" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1UG6RXAwH68UeQq8RnQvKllF5thobjLs7" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=17cGvn3pnkvG1TcsPWbxZQ8SVif6CD080" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=17cGvn3pnkvG1TcsPWbxZQ8SVif6CD080" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">This picture makes me laugh because this was my attempt to get out of the way for H to take a picture.

My mom made the dinner (a butternut squash GF pasta dish with goat cheese) and brought it over warm. That blessed me in so many ways- the healthy meal, the new recipe to try, the no clean up, the timing so we didn't eat too late, the time she took out of her work day to serve me and Lee, all of it! She is constantly one upping her own self in how well she loves on people, she's such a great example and role model. She's a gift that I am beyond grateful for. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Once she arrived, Lee insisted that we take this picture, which I also loved. Lee is so good at building people up in the most subtle of ways. He knew my mom worked hard to make this meal and how she can sometimes second guess herself (and worry that since it was a new recipe that I may not like it and she wouldn't want me to not like my birthday dinner) and the way he praised her and set this picture up, touched my heart. He loves me and others SO well and is constantly teaching me how to love and subtly building up others like he does. God gave me the best when He hand picked Lee for me. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1SRM7MmSIk82tNJrwZrcU1-qexCIG_jWa" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1SRM7MmSIk82tNJrwZrcU1-qexCIG_jWa" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">After dinner, we took some pictures together.

The day was full of the gym, school, and Friday chores. My favorite part of the day was laughing all together over dinner at a joke Luca was playing that Jack hysterically fell for. Lee cut Luca’s hair before dinner and said he vacuumed Luca’s nipple while cleaning up the hair. Luca then said one of his nipples was gone, sucked up into the vacuum and pulled his shirt down hurt just right to show Jack that it was gone. <span style="font-size: 12pt; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; display: inline !important;"> Luca kept winking at me to ensure I knew he was kidding (lol).

The original workout is written to do the step-ups with a 45# ruck bag (for men, I can’t remember the women’s weight). Lee wore his 20# weight vest and I did it without any additional weight. </div><div><br></div><div>After my 300 step, I said to Lee that I didn’t think I could actually do this. Mike, who was beside me, must’ve overheard me or seen my face and immediately said, “you gave birth three times! You can do this.” I turned and immediately started stepping and said “he’s right! I did do that.” It shifted my mindset from “I can’t” to “oh yeah, I can. I can do hard things.” I wasn’t sure how far I’d get, but I just kept stepping. I thought about how labor was longer (and way more painful) than this, I thought about the veteran, Chad, and the purpose behind the pain in this workout, and I thought about how Olive was there in front of me, watching. And I just kept stepping. I hit around 700 steps and thought, “oh my goodness, I can totally do this!” And then I did. 76 minutes and 41 seconds later, I did it. </div><div><br></div><div>So often I think I can’t do something hard, and it’s moments like this when I realize I can. CrossFit has taught me so much about life and faith and who God made me to be. I think I could write an entire book about all the lessons I’ve learned in that gym! </div><div><br></div><div>My sweet friends took Olive once they finished and let me finish. They split the workout, so they had a good bit of time to wait for others (like me, the last one done) to finish. They love on Olive so well everyday, and this day was no different. At the end, my friend Krista brought a small box over and put it in front of me and helped Olive step up with me. I had less than 100 steps to go, I felt like I was going to throw up, but I tried not to think about that and instead chose to look up at Olive. Looking at her kept me going, her sweet steps and her watchful eye was my push to finish. She and her brothers are my push to be better in life, to work harder, to forgive 77 times 7, to apologize freely, to love intentionally, to not give up when it gets hard, and to keep showing up. It was a gift to share the hard of this workout with her in this way. </div><div><br></div><div>See?

As a person who can unintentionally stuff her feelings and not process through them out loud (which is a thing I need as an external processor) I have been trying to work on getting better about that this year. I was so grateful for how Holy Spirit whispered to me to give the boys space to share this morning so I could listen to and hear their hearts and also as a way teach them how to talk about their thoughts and feelings. It didn’t feel forced, it was led by them, and it was just so good. I’m so grateful for the counsel and friend we have in Holy Spirit and how He’s always with us. </span><br></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=18R0UcjmxdPKZB3RqD-L5WpyJCRaqVJiZ" alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=18R0UcjmxdPKZB3RqD-L5WpyJCRaqVJiZ" style="font-size: 12pt;

I do enjoy getting dressed up in fun costumes with my family and watching the boys (and Olive too, as much as she can at least) walk confidently in what they have on while socializing with neighbors and checking out other fun costumes. I love the sense of community, especially how they do it in these southern neighborhoods, on Halloween night. Neighbors are all gathered in driveways, talking, sitting by a fire, handing out thoughtful treats to neighborhood kids. I think we forget how to how face to face conversations with people we aren’t good friends with, without a screen between us, but this night always feels like the opposite of that. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; display: inline; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; display: inline; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left;">We went to my parents house for dinner before the fun began and then we all got dressed in costume to trick or treat and sit in the driveway passing out candy. It was so much fun. Also, it was super helpful that my mom decided on dinner and I didn’t have to think about it or make anything for it since my arm was a bit sore. We left their house at the end of the night and I think we all felt so filled up to overflowing with love for them, for their intentionality, their love, and their fun. They are so deeply thoughtful and we all felt it this night a little bit extra. They dress up with us, and I love the way they just jump right in even if they’re a little uncomfortable (my dad in particular) wearing a costume. They love their kids and their grandkids and it is just so evident in their actions, on this night especially. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; display: inline; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; display: inline; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left;">One thing that stands out to me from this year in particular is that Luca wanted to be Bagheera from the Jungle Book but was concerned any costume he would wear would just look like a regular black cat. He voiced this concern to my mom in casual conversation, where he also voiced how he didn’t want to be the only person dressed up as a Jungle Book character. She went home and searched and searched for a panther costume and not a cat costume. (Which, is no easy task because a panther is technically a cat!) She found one that was exactly what Luca was envisioning and then she secretly decided to dress up as the tiger from the Jungle Book so Luca wasn’t the only character from it. That decision to join him, built him up in a way I am so grateful for. It instilled confidence in him and supported him in a way that showed him, tangibly, how much his creative vision matters and how much carrying that vision out matters. The world needs what God put in Luca, and the enemy tries to steal that in the form of lack of confidence. But that night, he walked around so confident as Bagheera. He didn’t second guess or think twice about it AND he had the most fun doing it. Because of her support and love and belief in him. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; display: inline; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; display: inline; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left;">Jack’s bedtime prayer that night listed out all the things he was thankful for that they did for us to make that night special and all I could do was smile and say “amen.” Because I couldn’t agree more. Thank you Lord for such a fun night and for blessing us with a loving family. We are so grateful for all of it, and not one detail goes unnoticed by any of us. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; display: inline; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; display: inline; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; display: inline; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left;">Ok, enough words.

On our way to the gym this morning, the boys and I sang some of our favorite songs from Brandon Lake’s new album and I loved it. Luca voiced that he didn’t want me to have the procedure and asked if I could not go. When I told him I had to, he asked if he could pray over me. 😭 Then he did. After his prayer he said, “maybe if you’re nervous during your appt you could play ‘God is not against me’” (he knows that’s my favorite song right now). It was all so sweet and thoughtful and both he and Jack were so sweet and concerned and loving- before and after I got home. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br></div><div style="text-align: left;">I was a bit nervous when I walked into the appt, and then again when I walked into the room and saw all the medical equipment. I spent the weeks leading up to it not thinking about it much so I think I was kind of surprised at how it felt a bit bigger than I allowed it to be in my mind. The procedure, the size of the incision, the care for after, etc. I didn’t think about it enough to think through all of that so I was kind of surprised by it all. Thankfully, my sweet boy gave me an idea so once the nurse left the room and I sat there alone, I put on “God is not against me.” The part it picked up at when I pushed play (because I had been listening in the car) was “You’re in it with me” and I was instantly reminded that I wasn’t alone. It brought such peace. I’ll never not be amazed at how God speaks directly to me through the mouths of my kids. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1ExLPgCPyWcm8PSQOLwA8uDRj4cVXP5P2" alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1ExLPgCPyWcm8PSQOLwA8uDRj4cVXP5P2" style="font-size: 12pt; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; height: auto; width: auto;"></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br></div><div style="text-align: left;">I had to stop and grab some bandage supplies (again, I had no idea I’d even need them 😂) and I grabbed a candy bar I had been wanting to try.

I didn’t like it at all.)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1KAzFdljNi8xt6CHRNbPmE1Ff1NOQ0P93" alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1KAzFdljNi8xt6CHRNbPmE1Ff1NOQ0P93" style="font-size: 12pt; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; height: auto; width: auto;"></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br></div><div style="text-align: left;">Something else I want to remember from this day was when I put Olive down before her am nap we had such a sweet moment. She loves being sung to while rocking in her chair holding her favorite stuffed animals (kitty, then we switch to the cheetah Luca gave her). She could be sung to all day long and it wouldn’t be enough for her, she loves it. Anyway, during the final song I sang to her this morning, we locked eyes and she smiled at me so big. I sang<span style="font-size: 12pt; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; display: inline !important;"> “you are my sunshine” while looking into her eyes while she looked back up at me with the biggest smile on, and I wept. She is such a gift. Getting to be a mom is such a gift. I prayed and waited for her for so long and I feel so grateful she’s ours. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br></div><div style="text-align: left;">Luca had his last regular season game this night.

We were trying to be extra mindful and rest my head and now my eye. Luca and Lee went for a run after we watched TBCØ church. Luca ran for just under a mile with Lee then came up while Lee went on to run more. Later that day Luca asked if they could go again. Lee wasn’t up for it (since he ran 5 miles that am), so we suggested he run some laps around our building. He loved that idea (the independence was extra appealing I think) and set a goal to do more than 3 laps and ended up doing 6! Just under a mile, again. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1E2efueFXEBLTmr7HU5YxG4WkGcmy1jum" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1E2efueFXEBLTmr7HU5YxG4WkGcmy1jum" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div>Monday, October 23</div><div>Olive was a bit nervous at the gym because the dogs were roaming, so my sweet friend Gemma skipped her workout to hold her so I could do mine. 😭❤️</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1mTvSCY7n_sH6akAXVlRzeU2NIOe5cwrs" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1mTvSCY7n_sH6akAXVlRzeU2NIOe5cwrs" style="height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I did my last FOTC workouts.

He shared his artwork; he brought in the inspiration picture and his drawing of it for everyone to compare and contrast. He also let out a hushed but excited “yesss!” when it was time for art. His tutor and classmates were all so impressed with his drawing on perspective. His tutor told him that God gave him such a gift and I loved hearing someone else pour into him with those words and that truth. </div><div><br></div><div>I snuck and watched Jack share because I’m obsessed with his voice and cute self.

It made me laugh so hard because there is no problem that boy cannot solve.

After Jack’s reading lesson was over on this day, he asked if I wanted him to go get Luca (we typically do Jack's reading lesson first, then Luca's). The next thing I know Olive was carrying a blanket over to me with one of her own books in her hand! I couldn’t believe it! She remembered! She heard it was Luca’s turn for reading and got the blanket to do it again (I didn’t even call for Luca, Luca wasn’t even sitting beside me yet). This time with her own reading material. She’s so smart and picks up on every little thing. I don’t know if that’s a girl thing (the boys didn’t pick up on things like she does, they were always too busy doing their own thing) or an Olive thing, but it blows me away. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=11boAa1NDAwteOXHb0dlX82E-RbgO54B5" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=11boAa1NDAwteOXHb0dlX82E-RbgO54B5" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1k6D3AVcv7cfjljSBhp1EcNm21KFOPVUt" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1k6D3AVcv7cfjljSBhp1EcNm21KFOPVUt" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Luca worked so hard on Jack's birthday all week. He made gifts, took from what he had to give things to Jack that he knew Jack would like. He even repackaged toys into packaging he had saved from other toys. He made all of the decorations and the cake toppers. He spent hours all week, ensuring that Jack would have a great day- full of all the things he would love. 90% of this, Luca made. As I saw it all laid out to wrap (which, Luca, mister organization, did), I couldn't help but think about how this is exactly how generosity works. You give from what you have. You don't wait until you have more in order to give. Look at what you are holding, look what is around you and think about how you can bless and bring joy to others. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1qSTkZA5ghszjDzW1wpYbSzAjQPvQ1ger" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1qSTkZA5ghszjDzW1wpYbSzAjQPvQ1ger" style="height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">He also stayed up late with me, after football, to decorate.

But, in true Jack fashion he had the best attitude, didn’t whine or complain once about being sick on his birthday, and enjoyed his day. All he wanted for the day was to stay home all day. For his two previous birthdays we were in Nashville, and he missed being home and doing all of our birthday traditions. So his being sick didn’t interfere too much with our plans, just stinky timing. He couldn’t fully enjoy birthday treats or his meal of choice because he didn’t really have an appetite. He still didn’t say one negative thing or complain!

When I asked him all week what he was most looking forward to for his birthday he’d say, “a happy family.” He loves people so well. He sees a need and will do whatever it takes to meet it, often without being asked. He is kind and gentle and works so hard. He’s really good with numbers and seems to enjoy solving math problems in his mind and doesn’t like if we try to help him because he likes to do it himself. And I love hearing how he arrives at his answers because it’s always so different from how I get to my answer! He is deeply thoughtful, so generous, and funny. He’s such a good balance of sweet and kind and fun. He loves video games and is pretty good at them. He likes spending time with Luca, and since Luca really likes to create and draw- Jack does too. He’s gotten pretty good at drawing too! He has such a tender heart toward his sister, it’s such a gift to get to witness. He loves to wrestle Lee and is determined to take him down. He also likes to check in with me often to ensure I’m ok. If I sigh, which I don’t even realize I do until he asks, “are you ok mom? Are you really?” </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">One thing that stands out to me about Jack recently is his positive outlook on life. I have been thinking about this a lot recently. At the end of each day, while we snuggle before bed, I typically ask for peaks and pits from their days. 90% of the time Jack says multiple peaks and then says, "I didn't really have any pits, today was a really good day." What is interesting to me about that is that I can sometimes think of pits for him. But, he genuinely sees his day with a positive perspective that the peaks are what stand out. It is so inspiring for me because I want to see the world that way too. I want to see the good, and forget the not so good. I want to be more like Jack. Anyone who knows Jack, is truly better for it. He is such a gift!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1nP4AuAWwL7n3-FEU64vvlX7KTiV7un71" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1nP4AuAWwL7n3-FEU64vvlX7KTiV7un71" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1Py-JLseOBQd5DjTgU5yY__BAU3cVzjbg" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1Py-JLseOBQd5DjTgU5yY__BAU3cVzjbg" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1cS-v7_6BxeYxiGh1omb_t1tISPs-1kh2" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1cS-v7_6BxeYxiGh1omb_t1tISPs-1kh2" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=15KhplCaaFMZFBTJNwKe3AP_0nLkvhLI8" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=15KhplCaaFMZFBTJNwKe3AP_0nLkvhLI8" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=102LQKrbfZaSZdn5sPI0tlnBN8XCbB9o1" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=102LQKrbfZaSZdn5sPI0tlnBN8XCbB9o1" style="height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div>Saturday, September 16 </div></div><div>This day was our first official day of our flag football season! Go Panthers (Jack’s team) and go Bills (Luca’s team)! They both did awesome. Jack wasn't feeling 100%, so he was a bit off during his game. He was also very distracted by his mouthguard. </div><div><br /></div><div>It's been really awesome to see Luca's transformation confidence wise since the start of his football practices until now. His positive self talk and confidence in himself and ability and his desire to learn and grow is through the roof and I really love getting to watch it unfold before my own eyes. It never ceases to amaze me as I watch prayers get answered before my very eyes. The things you pray over your kids and then watch them step into? I am not sure there is anything better. Or anything that shows me more clearly the constant hand of God on us and how He is always at work within us. </div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1c8b6HF01ytNZBnqmZ8DryKCsFFpIuUed" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1c8b6HF01ytNZBnqmZ8DryKCsFFpIuUed" style="height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1eSWBecwNMFe9J3yI492OR4dxoXZecLjr" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1eSWBecwNMFe9J3yI492OR4dxoXZecLjr" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">His best football pose. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=10gCQC8454xbjm-twVRqykAl1V91U2gfX" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=10gCQC8454xbjm-twVRqykAl1V91U2gfX" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1aSw02L-y8U38-9hHwltpvp0L6f7xFQMd" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1aSw02L-y8U38-9hHwltpvp0L6f7xFQMd" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Jack's game was first and while we waited, Luca made up his own football drills that he ran along the sidelines.

He also challenged himself to do these curved monkey bars while we waited for Jack's game. He tried them like 10 times and kept falling but then he finally got it! It was so awesome to see him succeed, but whats more, it was so great to watch him persevere. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1k87zwTvI401qVVRVNSenmTTd8_O9ayFG" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1k87zwTvI401qVVRVNSenmTTd8_O9ayFG" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1MzJYQXjIjqtJjHHh8WpYu2kdOEAXaCGh" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1MzJYQXjIjqtJjHHh8WpYu2kdOEAXaCGh" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /><img alt="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1pqchSoIeVRWwspcGJC7o04DFbN5_vNl6" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1pqchSoIeVRWwspcGJC7o04DFbN5_vNl6" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; font-size: 12pt; height: auto; max-height: 80%; max-width: 80%; width: auto;" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">It was a long day at the field.
