Dear Jordan,
Now that you are talking more, I find myself answering a lot more questions. You want to know about everything and most of the questions you ask are hard to answer. For example: "What is that house doing?" The only way I can think of to answer is to say "It's just sitting there." Today, you wanted to call the fire department because two birds were sitting on top of a building and "couldn't get down". So, we called (pretend, of course!), because that's the only way you will be satisfied.
You also make comments about things...which sometimes are embarrassing to me. There was a lady checking us out at the store who clearly looked like she has a hard time making ends meet. You said to her, "Why do you have a hole in your shirt?" And today when we went to the gym, the guy who checks us in has long dreadlocks and you said "You need to cut your hair." I have to talk fast to make it not so awkward. But you are so sweet and innocent that they never take it personally!
Grammy and Pappa are here for 8 months and you are loving all of the extra time with them. We are so used to spending every second with them, like we do when they are on vacation. It's taking us all a little bit to get used to seeing them at church and for an hour or so here and there. It's going to be so fun to celebrate birthdays, holidays, and all of the fall festivities with them!
Jordan, my heart is to really try to share God's truths with you but I feel like I fail so often. I pray all of the time that your heart will be soft and that you will put your faith in Him at a young age. Despite my limitations and failures, He loves you so much and wants you to walk with Him. He's more powerful than we can imagine so He can overcome my humanity. I hope you know just how much Jesus loves you.
I love you too!
