Things I've learned from Gia

Things I've learned from Gia:

1.  I can function amazingly well on the least sleep I've ever gotten in my life (including college).

2.  If God loves me the way I love Gia, then I am ashamed of the moments when I ever doubted Him.

3.  My husband is more sacrificial than I could have imagined.

4.  Patience.  I kept waiting and waiting for her to laugh, and she finally did, and it was awesome!  Now I am waiting and waiting for that first tooth.  Bobby keeps thinking that anytime she is cranky, she must be cutting a tooth, so he is patiently waiting to be right one of these days.

5.  How to cook with one hand.

6.  I've learned that I have to be on CONSTANT alert, because it only takes a second for Nola to knock her over or for her to poop all over herself.

7.  I really LOVE to shop!  I never had a love for it before, but I get really excited about buying Gia's clothes.

8.  Always have an empty plastic bottle around.  Both my dog and my kid love chewing on them.

 

There is more, I'm sure, but that's what I can think of for now.  I am so thankful for this little gift and all she is going to teach me in the future.
