Our sweet Nora. We can hardly believe that she will soon be a two year old! my goodness. i was looking at her this morning as she was watching Curious George and was so amazed at how my sweet baby is now a toddler! She LOVES life, people, outdoors, the poo (as she calls it, which is pool), and anything smaller than her.
She makes us laugh all the time...I'm sure people by now are over all the "Nora stories" cause that's all we have to talk about! She is so smart and very independent! She knows all her ABC's and knows how to count to 10 even though most times she gets distracted and starts to sing something from Yo Gabba Gabba. Currently she is learning the Pledge of Allegiance-thanks to Naana she will be so patriotic come 4th of July.
Fathers day is celebrated in 2 parts at the Eiesland home. Saturday morning is when Breakfast in bed happens (as Tom has to be at church really early-it just works better for our family) So Saturday morning i made my lovely...banana pancakes, eggs, and watermelon and of course had coffee for him too. I got Nora out of bed and put her in bed with Dad and along came his breakfast... of which Nora of course indulged in herself.
Saturday was a great day, Tom picked out a Gas grill for his gift, and then we went to Papa and Naana's house for a swim. Nora is a fish! She would swim until the sun goes down and then comes back up again! Maybe it's a familiar feeling as she was in my belly "swimming" for 9 months.
On another separate note April 1st Tom and i took the Job as part time Jr High and High School pastor's at Grace Community. We know that the Lord has called us to the youth there and we are absolutely loving it! We are soooo busy and are learning to manage our time so that we have time for each other. But we know this is where God has us, and we're enjoying seeing the Kids grow in their relationships with Jesus.
The Beginning of June Tom and I decided to change the name of the youth ministries (as all new pastors do..lol) We decided upon The Grove Student Ministries....definition being: a group of trees planted and cultivated to bear fruit. We knew this was the right name as we are excited to see what fruit God is going to bear in these students...
any ways. there's the update on us for now...sure there's more but don't want to bore any of you.
Live in Love
