Day 13

I was again a emotional mess from the sweetness of the other adoptive parents this morning at breakfast.  They know that I was struggling and would always really really look deep into my eyes are ask....  

God spoke to me again after breakfast. "What do you fear?!"

I fear she will never love me, Lord. 

"GIVE it up!" He reminded me. "Do you not trust me?!"

Yes, Lord, apparently I have trust issues. 

Josie seemed to like a stroller so we went out for a walk in the park this morning. I thought for suuuure that she should walk to burn off energy, but nope nope and nope.  We try to get her to repeat as many words as possible and some of them are hilarious. It just different. It hard for us to repeat a single word the guide says so in return, it's hard for Josie. We walked around old men playing games, exercise classes, runners and cats and dogs. 

Josie loves to say puppy and picks out every dog within a mile.

We ran part of the way home to avoid getting caught in the rain. 

After lunch, we tried a nap. I really don't know why we bother trying... But she is so tired. Cry, cry, cry. 

Afterward the tearful mess,we played in the indoor toy room

I feel like all I do is feed her. I guess this is really real to life. 

I decided to take her swimming even in the rain. With her cold I probably shouldn't have, but it was still hot outside.

We actually had fun splashing the puddles, dipping in the pool and singing with the music. They kicked us out because it was thundering. 

 

We are both so excited to get home. We both packed up a little bit.
