nine and ten

#9

I can't explain how thankful I am for the love between my kids.  When we were preparing for Gabby's arrival we didn't know how to explain to Nathan that he was about to learn a big lesson in sharing.  We figured he would be extremely jealous and angry at his new baby sister. 

Well, God works in crazy ways. When Gabby came home Nathan was fascinated with her. He was checking out her tiny toes, fingers and her little nose.


Nathan loves his baby sister!

I'm also thankful that I have an older brother.  Growing up, I always leaned on Robby for strength and encouragement.  Now, I think he leans more on me but I can owe some of my success to him.

I've lost 40 pounds!  I feel so great and this is just a milestone along my journey.  I know it will take me a long time to reach my ultimate goal but I know with God on my side I can get there.  Thank you to everyone who is praying for me and sending me encouragement.  I will try to post before and after pictures soon.
