Hard Month- But EK is shining!

This month has been difficult, not from Eva Kate's issues but the deaths in our family. "Nana" EK's great grandmother passed away on 2/2/13. Today 2/24/13 marks the two year anniversary of my Dad's death, EK's "Grandaddy". Besides all the loss and tears- we've had happy tears over Eva Kate's progress with speech. She is stringing together small 3-4 word phrases that actually make since and people other than Paul and myself can understand her. She says "Molyee" on a daily basis and is even giving her sister hugs and kisses from day to day. They tattle on each other and fuss like normal siblings do. Some of my new favorite EK phrases are, "Come on Mom" and "want some more _____" when making a request. I give God the glory for these great improvements and can't wait to see how He will continue to bless our lives through our beautiful EK!
