Sleep and Day naps

This wk's been a breeze cos Nathan's sleeping much better. Perhaps he saw it coming that dad and mom are going to train him to sleep through the night, he's been waking up only once since Monday, compared to before, he wakes at least twice to three times.

Day time, he's been taking two naps, each lasting about an hour or more. On Tuesday, his nap took a good 3 hours! Imagine the freedom I had. Did everything I could think of doing.

Nathan's finally learnt to crawl forward. Took his first few steps yesterday. He looked really cute with his buttocks swinging from side to side. At the same time, he's very eager to walk too. Today, I just saw him lifting himself up to standing position from sitting by holding on to the yellow sofa. He was trying to move himself around, but fell buttocks down on the floor. Give him another week, think he'll be able to take his steps soon.

As I see Nathan grow everyday, I can't stop singing praises to God. It is God, my good shepherd and souverign father who has protected us, and given us joy to live each day. How can I ever outgrown my dependence on Him, for the more I live, the greater my need of Him in every area of my life, without God, I am indeed but dust, nothing to remember of, nothing to marvel about. With Christ my solid rock, I can stand firm despite of storms, and face the challenges that lie ahead. We know we are enemies of the world while we are set apart for christ. Whatever the trials, we pray dear Lord, keep us rooted in your embrace.
