proud mama.

I know I just posted yesterday but today was just too good not to blog about!

Today was probably one of the best days of my life. When I walked into my house this morning and saw my little boy, I am pretty sure I screamed and started dancing around the room like a fool. I did this because my boy was wearing a school uniform! He started school today!!!!! This is the boy that is 6 years old but looks like a 3 year because he was so malnourished. When I got here in July he couldn't walk and he hardly talked. I have been working with him A LOT and he has kind of become my favorite. I know, I know, I have favorites...I am a terrible person. Anyway, he now walks, feeds himself, laughs, and is talking more and more. Seeing him in that uniform today was the most rewarding thing ever. I felt like a proud mama. He was so excited to show me his fancy striped tie that he nearly tripped over and his shiny new shoes. As I helped him put his back pack on and tighten the straps he was all smiles. He gave me a kiss on the cheek and waved goodbye. As I watched him walk to school I was nearly in tears and I just wanted to shout at the top of my lungs, "SEE HOW THE LORD IS HEALING THIS BEAUTIFUL BOY! WE SERVE A GOOD, GOOD GOD!"


that's all I got for today. 
remember all the things the Lord has done in your life and take time to thank him and praise him for those things. 

peace and love.
