Demani is babbling away these days. It's almost rare for him to be quiet in recent days! I wish I knew what he was saying! Last weekend Mathwon was in Chicago and Demani and I hung with family. We went to Demani's Great Aunt Nene's house for the first time and Karen, Uncle Jim's daughter, took a great shot of us on the hammock. It looks like Demani really wants to say something in the picture. It was a fun weekend.
This next week Nanan Howard is coming to visit for the week. We are looking forward to her visit!
Other new thing I've realized about motherhood is that the concern never fades and the stress will never abate. At each stage, each moment, there is something new to be concerned about. Did he eat enough? He hasn't gone to the bathroom in a few days, should I be concerned? Why is he coughing? Am I doing enough for him? Is he getting enough sleep? I've realized this will go on forever. I'm not an excessive worrier or anything, and I try to take everything to God in prayer. But I have resigned myself to this new state of being, of being consumed with love for this little man God gave us.
