Every good and perfect gift is from above. James 1:17
Those words never spoke more truth than this past Wednesday. Wednesday afternoon I received a call from Michael that asked if we could watch Bryson as Kristin was going into the hospital to be monitored. I tried to hide the excitement from my voice as I knew what this meant. Her scheduled date was over a week and a day away, but at 37 almost 38 weeks, I new that it could be at any moment. We picked up this cutie from daycare. He was at first a bit confused but within seconds was running at marathon speeds to us and gave big hugs. From the moment we were in the car, we discussed changing into his jersey and then playing lots of different sport games including basketball, hockey, golf, and baseball.
We played puzzles, pop up pirate, and play dough. We sure had a blast. He made every minute of the night full of excitement. I love the way his brain works. Plus he just LOVES Ray. Talk about melt your heart moments. We had found out that it was go time. We couldn't wait to hear the news of the twin's birth. We sent love and prayers to our Fant friends and continued to love on little man. :)
For dinner he enjoyed chicken nuggets and some gummies with a side showing of Cars 2. I love how he named all the different car characters. After dinner he told us that his Thingamajig was sleepy and he quickly tucked him in for the night.
It was about that time for little man to get his own jammies on. We bribed him a bit by explaining that Ray would be Superman and I would wear Super Mario Brothers if he could show us Mr. Incredible. As you can see he was super excited to show us his Mr. Incredible jammies. Then he sang us the B-I-B-L-E song and repeated several stories from the bible in bed. I told him I was getting sleepy (hoping he would start getting tired). He asked that the lights be turned off and gave me a pillow. He then tucked me in. Another melt your heart moment for sure. The night ended in wonderful excitement. We had a
super fun playdate with little man, Bryson and two very sweet
twins had arrived.
God is good!
The next day, we couldn't wait to stop by the hospital to visit Kristin and Michael. Mom and babies were doing amazing! Sweet Emily and Madelynn were absolutely perfect.
We are so thankful for these two blessings to our Fant friends. We know that God made them perfectly and wonderfully. I'm so excited to watch them grow and know that they have such wonderful parents to set forth the example. Sending love and wishes to our friends! Happy birthday sweet girls!
