It has been ages since i last came back here, to my own blog. God has been great in our lives. The last 6 months flew by and every single day was a revelation of what God can do for you when you ask, and believe.

Julian is in Kindergarten now, and he has grown into this wonderful, little man that can sit and have a conversation with us. He loves school, but he misses his best friend who had to go to another school this year.

We read 150 books to date since summer. We joined the summer library reading program this year and we got hooked. Every Saturday morning we are at the library to get our new books for the week. He is now reading very well, and can actually correct us when we do not pronounce some words right :) It is amazing how much kids soak in when you let them learn.

Eli, what can i say…He is my last born, and i tell you he challenges me in ways that Julian never really had. He is so vibrant, energetic, stubborn, and moving along at his own pace. There’s so much to work with him. He is so independent, i am having to slow him down, pray more for him than i ever prayed for myself. I am telling myself, this Terrible two stage will never last forever…or so i hope!

See, no matter how many buttons he successfully pushes me, he just manages to melt my heart with those eyes, and mischief. God i love Eli!

Julian has done so much for me this last 6 months when his dad was away. I feel like he was used so many times to be this little angel on earth, for me. There are so many times, i would be tired, or stressed , or just worried and he would just come out and tell me exactly what i needed to hear , and jumpstart me for the day.

Thursday afternoon, i picked himup from school after a busy day, he run so fast towards me, jumped into my arms , threw his arms so tight around my neck, looked into my eyes and said to me ” mommy, i am soo happy you are my mom. You are the best mom in the whole world. I love you so much mom” I got choked, swallowed it, and let’s just say, that was one of the best days of my life. Nothing can beat that!

My hubby is back home now. He is my best friend, i am elated! The boys are very happy to have him home too. We didn’t realize how much his trip affected Julian, till now. He made his dad promise he won’t leave him again. He is following him everywhere he goes. His dad has to put him to bed too because he is scared if he sleeps, his dad will be gone when he wakes up.

We are all glad he is home, safe and sound.

When you are a family, not having a family member around is definitely a challenge, but with God’s grace you can make it through anything!

Hug and love your loved ones tonight.

Have a great week!
