Sonic Slushes

I didn't get it...what the draw to Sonic was...until my sister introduced me a couple of years ago...a fresh fruit slush (lemon)...now that's some good stuff!!


Eliza got her first slush a couple of days ago...and she loved it!  I mean wouldn't put it down loved it! (and I loved that during happy hour, I got both Eliza and George slushes for $1.19 plus tax!!). 

Eliza has experienced many first since we moved here...

First stair climb
First steps
First shoes (not the soft bottom kind, but legit shoes)
First birthday
First bout of the stomach flu (which interestingly enough she gave to her entire family after her first birthday party...much like her big brother did!!)
First trip to the beach

and here in couple of weeks...her First time in school.

Now Eliza...how do I say this nicely...is DRAMA!!!  We love our sassy little girl, but man, she gives us a run for our money.  She often has bruises on her forehead from throwing herself down, but her smile can blow you away.  She is our unexpected joy...and her brother is pretty crazy about her too!

Here's how you can be praying for her:

School - she has never been in a setting like that.  We are starting at one day a week.  She is currently on the waiting list.  Pray she will get in soon and for her adjustment

Drama - pray for wisdom for us in how to deal with her.  She is COMPLETELY opposite from George and we are struggling to fully understand how to handle her. 

Teething - She has 8 teeth and I can't wait for the rest to bust through so we can just be done!  Pray for comfort.

Nightly Bible Stories - She is reaching the age where we can finally do our nighttime devotions with both kids.  Pray for both of them as they begin to learn (and George grasp) truths about a God who loves them more than we could ever fathom!
