Siete Meses - Seven Months

SEVEN months today! In the recent days of his 215 days of life, this little buddy has a new tooth, begun to eat a variety of solid foods, and has started mumbling mama and dada! He has also become incredibly observant of sounds and lights. While eating at his high chair he is often distracted by the birds outside the window that are eating from the feeder. His fine motor skills continue to impress his parents as he reaches for small and big things and is able to pick them up. Rolling from the living room to the kitchen (about 50 feet) has become new pastime for baby J (yes I am still supervising him...). Favorite toys include mama's sweatshirt strings, his red binky, and an old computer key board that his grandma gave him. New nicknames...peanut and nugget. I am so very grateful for each day I get to love on and watch this boy grow!





This kid also loves books!!

Dear Restless Heart. Words from Edith Willis Linn

Dear restless heart, be brave; don't fret and worry so;
God has a thousand ways His love and help to show;
Just trust, and trust, and trust, until His will you know;

Dear restless heart, be still, for peace is God's own smile,
His love can every wrong and sorrow reconcile;
Just love, and love, and love, and calmly wait awhile.

Dear restless heart, be brave; don't moan and sorrow so,
He has a meaning kind in chilly winds that blow;
Just hope, and hope, and hope, until you braver grow.

Dear restless heart, recline upon His breast this hour,
His grace is strength and life, His love is bloom and flower;
Just rest, and rest, and rest, within His tender power.

Dear restless heart, be still! Don't struggle to be free;
God's life is in your life, from Him you may not flee;
Just pray, and pray, and pray, till you have faith to see.
