I’m learning, that you can never “nail” parenthood.
You can score an ‘A’ on a test, master a skill, perfect a technique, but parenthood? It’s a learning curve that keeps you on your toes.
For life.
Just when you thought you “got it,” something changes, a new milestone is hit, and newly settled solutions, strategies and routines go out the window. What worked yesterday, no longer works for today.
Yet, every day also brings fresh surprises- a new smile, new sounds, an unexpected grasp.
Every day, requires a fresh dose of God’s wisdom and God’s grace, keeping one challenged and humbled, always.
One thing stays constant, though: that while strategies change, love does not- God’s love for us and our love for yours.
And these precious smiles, with your first at your fifth day of life, have made the climb up the learning curve worthwhile.
We thank God for answering our prayers, that you’ve been filled with His joy.
We can’t believe you’re now a month old, Sarah-Faith.
Keep smiling, from the bottom of your heart to the ends of the earth, even as we climb this learning curve together.
Love,
Mama
