The One Year Mark

On Tuesday, my little nephew turned one year old. I remember last April very vividly. It was a hectic time to say the least. I enjoyed the projects I was a part of when they didn't stress me out, but overall, it was a pretty hard point. A lot changed and I felt rather defeated most of the time. I guess April in general is a transition period for me. But on April 18, 2016, my adorable little David Jonathan was born. Thank God. I don't know what would've happened to me if he didn't arrive at that perfect time. My niece and nephew, despite all the insanity and chaos they bring, are little angels that God sent to save me. Of that I am convinced.

He's finally warming up to me. Maybe it's because he's sick haha. But he actually asks to go with me now. He's playing with me and chatting with me a lot more. Hopefully I'll be able to help him walk or talk some more before he and the gang move. I'm so happy to spend these last few months with them right by my side. And hopefully he doesn't get me sick before my show haha.

Eric is here for the weekend! On Saturday, we will have a huge celebration for the itty bitty. The theme is Charlie Brown, of course! It'll be a treat for everyone. I know being away from his family is not easy for Eric, and Karla misses him every day. I'm grateful that they're able to have moments like this weekend where they can be happy together. As much as I want desperately to keep them, God has a plan for my big sister. She has her own family now and that's where she needs to go: wherever is best for them. No matter how far, she's still there for me. So I've got to make sure to do the same. For her and for the kiddos.
