Merry Christmas! You just turned 4 months old on Christmas Eve. Your Daddy and I think you have grown up so much even in the last week. You turn to us when we call you and we are pretty sure you know what your pacifier is when you take it out of your mouth and every once in a while put it back in. You also grab things very well, making use of both of your hands. You can almost sit up by yourself if you could only stop yourself from leaning forward too much. ;)
Last night as I nursed you, you reached your hands up to my face and gently pulled my hair or grabbed my chin. I loved it. You are so sweet and eager to smile or laugh at me. You just caught a cold for the first time this week, but you are still so happy even if you are a bit more clingy. I'm struggling to see you sick. You don't mind it, but I wish you didn't have to experience pain and suffering. I wish I could take all of your pain on myself, but I know that would steal something very important from you. Our pain and suffering in this life is what keeps us dependent on God. You would think that you were invincible if I could save you from everything and the truth is ... We are humans who can die very easily. Life is precious and fragile. So trust God for your life and health. We may not always be well, but God promises to care for us and provide for our needs. Our biggest need is for a Savior and my prayer is that you are one of Gods chosen children.... And I'm praying for Him to protect you while you are sick.
I love you my son,
Mommy
