Dear God:

Luke has never been a good sleeper; ever. With the baby coming we have started to attempt to get him to sleep through the night - every bit counts! We told him that we wouldn't be coming in to help him get back to sleep cause now he was a big boy and big brother but we added that God is always with him so that he didn't feel alone. I heard him crying out a few times over the last week but he has been pretty good. He got a cold and I thought the whole thing was going to go out the window but last night I heard this: "Dear God, can I please sit in your lap and you sing me a song like mommy does? The one about Grace. Mommy said you are there and love me so I think you should say yes." After that he was back asleep and I was wide awake thinking about how amazing it was to hear this and reflecting on what it really means to have "FAITH LIKE A CHILD"

...

I am only 16 weeks and already I want nothing more than to smush my new smush.

However...
Luke had a play date this afternoon and it was so nice to not have to watch them, as long we heard giggles we knew all was right with the world. Some parts of him being 3 are so nice.
