So July has been a very busy month! So busy I have failed to write. I am in my fall recruiting season at church and almost back to full time hours in this season. It takes 500 volunteers a week to run our ministry!!! Wow! God has really blessed us! We have done lots of things together as a family and I am adding some pictures to share. Bella is full out acting "two", although we have 2 months to go. Her favorite things include being naked, saying no, throwing tantrums, running away at my most vulnerable moments (like in the bathroom), and singing. I will say she is quite the little singer. Her favortie songs include Jesus Loves me, Jesus loves the little children, NaNa NaNaNaNaNa...waves of mercy, holy holy holy, twinkle twinkle little star, and the itsy bitsy spider are just a few that she busts out. We did have a MAJOR moment last night, she teeteed in the potty for the first time. We made a big party out of it. I am not pushing it b/c I don't know if I am ready yet, but, it was a major mile stone. Also, yesterday was her last day of school with her first teachers. Oh how sad am I!!! Ms Terrie and Ms Jlill were the best! I don't know what I will do without them!!!! When I picked Bella up yesterday, we were telling them how much we will miss them and Ms Terrie said "the best way to describe Bella is that she is full of life". And that says it all! She is just full of hersalf and life. She keeps us laughing and we have the best time together. Enjoy the pics! God bless you all!
