A Little To Easy

OK, we arrive home after a quick trip to get the oil in the car changed and running through Shop Rite to get some essentials for the weekend. CJ is a little on the quiet side and not all over the place. Tonight was Daddy Bath Night and that went off without incident. She ate her dinner and did not toss it all over the place. When I went in the room to put her down for the night she went to the crib without a whimper. This is so atypical of CJ going to bed. Atypical but I will take it. I prefer this type of evening over the evenings where she cries for no reason. So Cj is sleeping soundly now and Daddy is watching the real world. A little odd tonight but peaceful. You all keep praying this may become the norm. Prayer changes things, people, and situations.

Blowout City

This is a highlight night. Daddy had to go back to the school to support the basketball coach. CJ on the other hand fell asleep in the car on the way from the babysitters. Mommy called the sitter and found out that CJ did not take a nap today so we decided to take her coat off and put her to bed. Daddy went to the game and came home and CJ was still sleeping. The game was a blowout so nothing to report to CJ. At least Mommy got to do some laundry in peace and did not have to chase CJ around the house. So nothing eventful tonight, CJ played catch up with her sleep tonight.

So folks keep the prayers going up for us. They are working! Prayer changes things, people, and situations!

Surgery

Well we finally went to the ENT Specialist today and what we knew all along was confirmed. CJ has enlarged adenoids. Therefore it is suggested that she has surgery to removed them. Daddy is confident that the procedure will go well and CJ will be able t breath a lot better because of it. She will no longer be congested and her sleeping will be a lot more comfortable.

Daddy promised CJ that he would be there to pick her up today and he made good of his promise. Yesterday Daddy did not see CJ when she arrived home so today had to be different. Daddy loves to see his Princess running to him and embracing his legs and saying, Daddy! Even though I had a great day at work today that moment makes any day brighter.

We had dinner at IHOP tonight and CJ hit a busboy, spoke to all the customers, and felt the need to yell whenever she wanted too. Sometimes it is cute, sometimes it gets on my nerves, sometimes she gets really loud. Mommy always says, "I wonder where she gets that from?" I looked at CJ tonight and really saw that she looks a lot like her Daddy. Daddy said, wow, lol! I love this kid!

Keep praying for us as a Daddy/Daughter combo. Pray that we grow closer as we both get older. Cover our ups and downs now. Prayer changes things, people. and situations.

NOTE TO CJ: God please continue to keep moving in our lives. Thank you for making a way out of no way! CJ, in ALL your ways acknowledge him and he SHALL direct your paths.

Calling For Daddy

Daddy was not home when CJ arrived home. Daddy had to stay at work a little longer due to a organizational function. So Mommy and CJ received a ride home. When Daddy talked to Mommy during his ride home, Mommy shared with him that CJ was calling for him when they reached the house. That made Daddy get goosebumps. Daddy was so happy that he wanted to wake CJ up to give her a super hug and kiss once he was home but he let her sleep.

Daddy hates being away from his Princess but always has her on his mind. He wonders what she is doing, what she is saying, what she is destroying, and anything else she can think to get into. Daddy's girl is a top priority and anytime away feels like loss time. Prayerfully she will understand why she must share her Daddy but with that understanding comes full knowledge that she has him all to herself in reality.

Keep praying for us folks, prayer changes things, people, and situations.

Pancake Mornings

Well it was not IHOP but the pancakes were just as good. Daddy's meeting was cancelled so the breakfast plans needed to be altered. They both wish they could have gone back to bed but Daddy still had business to conduct up north. Besides Mommy was still sick and needed to be alone. So we headed up north Daddy driving and CJ riding in the back. As soon as we hit Daddy's block and CJ laid eyes on the house she began to whine. Could she really associate it with getting her hair done? I asked her why she was crying and told her that her hair was done and that she needed to cut the noise out. We arrived on time for breakfast Daddy's Mommy made pancakes so CJ and Daddy were in heaven. CJ's Pop overflowed her pancakes with Syrup and her great-grandmother came to add some more. Mommy might have had a heart attack if she was present. CJ was in her clinging mode and in the back of her mind were thoughts of getting her hair done. This came to light when Daddy's mother picked up a comb to do her own hair to leave. CJ began to cry hysterically and attempted to get out of her high chair. Daddy wondered what was wrong and when he realized it he comforted CJ and CJ decided it would be best to cling to him for the rest of the time.

Daddy got his windshield repaired and when we dropped the car off CJ's Aunt NeNe accompanied us. Since CJ was good with her she bought CJ some Cheese Doodles and CJ feasted on the entire bag. On the ride home from the very non-nutritious food she ate in the morning CJ fell asleep for a good long while. The morning together was cool. CJ is really getting big and beginning to take in a lot more. SHe is saying her letters, attempting her name and recalling information. It is a joy to see her grow. Keep praying for us folks, we need it. Things still need to be worked out but we are leaving it ALL in God's hand. We stand firm that prayer changes things, people, and situations!
