To Sum Up the Week

Thanks Kate for the idea to post a picture that captures our week! If you are inspired to do the same, leave your link on the comments!

We wanted to share our Verse for the month of January. It only took him 2 weeks to learn and be able to say by himself! He's so smart!

Give all your worries to him, because he cares for you.

1 Peter 5:7 (ERV)

I picked this verse because it seemed easy to learn. It's been awesome to see how God has totally been using it in my life every day! :)

"You know you're a Parent When..."

• A task that should take 5 minutes actually takes 15 because your toddler is "helping".
• For the sake of teaching your child responsibility, you allow him to "assist" you in projects that are not really intended for 2-year olds. 
• You wait until bed time or nap time to eat the candy bar you have been craving all day! (yes, I'll admit I am guilty of this)!
• You find extra napkins/tissues in your pockets or purse all the time.
• You strategically place belongings out of your child's reach.
• You walk like a dinosaur through all of ULTA to keep your child engaged while your spouse gets a haircut.
• Peek-a-boo is a game you can officially play ANYWHERE!
• You make your child repeat a sentence as many times as possible just because it is SO funny!
• You don't care about public humiliation so long as your child smiles at the camera.
• You have the camera or phone ready at a moment's notice to capture the funny things your child does!
• One of the most horrible things to forget when going out is wipes - seriously, you just don't want to be caught without them!
• You are looking at "family cars" instead of "fun cars" as your future vehicle!
• Your version of "sleeping in" is 7:30... if you are lucky!
• You schedule things around naps.
• Things that seemed unimportant years ago are now important topics of conversation.
• Hugs and kisses from your little one = BEST THING EVER!
• Cuddling with your child is something you look forward to.
• You love listening to your child laugh.
• You memorize a story because you have read it so many times!
• You are interested in your child's bodily functions and you don't get grossed out like before.
• You find yourself randomly singing kid's show tunes instead of the newest song on the radio.
• By "bedtime" you are exhausted but you still walk in to your child's room to watch him sleep!
• No matter what, you wouldn't trade one second with your child for the world!
