I Missed It!

After staying home with CJ all day because she had a fever she goes and does this to Daddy. I am driving up the parkway on my way to Bible Study when the phone rings. NO hello, the words were simply this, "CJ just walked across the room!" Now I wanted to pull over and turn back and wait until she did it in front of me but I had to keep going north and take Mommy's word for it. This is definitely a moment in time I wanted to witness but for some reason I was not there. I just pray I am there the next time she decides to strut her stuff at home.

Today CJ played Jeckle and Hyde. She was home because she had a fever, now most children with a fever would try to sleep all day, barely eat, and be a nag until it hurt them. My Princess though, played, and played, ate all she wanted too, and roamed the house as if she it was a regular business day for her. Not that I was trying to get anything accomplished, but I could have used a few moments of silence. I was overjoyed when she decided to take a nap. I was at least able to take a shower.

She is much better now and sleeping soundly. I am glad she was active though, I would have been a lot more worried had she been lethargic and gloomy. So now I am anxious to see her walk. I probably will ask her to walk for me in the morning and on site when I pick her up from the sitter. Her strutting means the days of she and I running around and playing outside are near. WATCH OUT neighbors, here we come. So for now continue to lift her health up in prayer. CJ and I believe and pray you do to, that prayer changes things, people, and situations.

NOTE TO CJ: Understand that sometime you have to celebrate accomplishments alone. Mommy told me after you walked across the room you clapped your hands. Always know that Daddy is there with you even if he is not physically present. Being a servant of the Lord you sometimes have to be away from the house tending to others. Always know you are #1 in Daddy's life and I will try to be there when you have those milestones in life!
