Zora made her debut at church today and everyone loved her. Not that that should be a surprise; she is such a lovely, sweet, beautiful child!She looked so adorable in her little pink dress and headband! Ok forgive me; I was having a "mommy" moment. I am so proud of her. I know she is just anewborn but she is so perfect to me. She behaved very well during church; I only had to take her out once(to feed her), at the beginning of service. No one has a problem with nursing moms feeding their babies during service( as long as they are modest about it). But I just wouldn't feel right nursing her with that many people around. For the most part I like to nurse her in solitude. I view it as our special time to spend together and bond.Besides, sometime Zora loses her grip and while I am trying to get her back on a boob will get exposed. So its best to just feed her alone; that way I don't have to worry.
I was so glad to go to church today! It was the first time I heard a sermon in two months. Even when I was at church before I had Zora, I rarely got a chance to hear the message because I'd be with the children. Speaking of the kids, I actually miss my little ones. As exasperating as they could get at times, they are very sweet. When I take up my post again next month I will be working with the teens and the preteens, so my time with the children is pretty much up. I enjoyed it though I learned that I have alot of patience.
Something is WRONG in Seattle right now. The weather is just too good to be true! Seriously, I wore capris and sandals yesterday...and its APRIL. It is supposed to be pouring down rain right now. It was in the 70s yesterday and felt like the 80s today. Matter of fact it is 9:30, I have all the windows in the house open & nothing but my robe on-yet I am still uncomfortably hot! This is August weather. Don't get me wrong; I am no fan of the rain. Yet I like to have seasons, you know? Its like we jumped from winter to summer. Its crazy.
