Learning to Walk Humbly - 35 and 36

• Both days came home early enough to play with Junior and hang out with her as she goes through all sorts of advancements: crawling, and today -- pulling up from a crawling position to standing and walking with assistance! What?!  So special to share these moments with her, day by day.

• So many sweet smiles from my girl.  She is sleeping terribly -- waking me up for nursing at 11pm, 1am, 4am, 7 am... and Daddy more times in between -- but she is such a sweet little ducky and in the morning and when I get home, she is so smiley and excited to see Mommy.  Makes me feel so lucky!

• Good quiet times in the evenings.  Been really challenged about the nature of God's will.  So much seeking after it with respect to my work...only to be reminded that in many ways, the biggest aspects of His will have already been made known:  rejoice always.  Pray without ceasing.  Give thanks in all things.  Become more like Jesus.  What a challenge.

• Thankful for Mr. Squire always taking care of our groceries, and taking care of housework...came home to a vacuumed apartment and clean bathrooms.  Not because he notices it when it's dirty, but because his wife does.  I'm not sure how long this season of our lives will last.  And it is tough in many ways.  But there are definite upsides to having Mr. Squire working from home, especially since Batty is here.
