we've had a good week w/brooke. although things started off rough w/her adjusting to summer school....it slowly tappered off. just yesterday i was cooking homemade pizzas for the boys (they were in the oven)..brooke had already eaten but she made her way in the kitchen (her favorite room in the house)....and said outloud "biscut"..."biscut". I was amazed b/c even though she didn't see them, she smelt them. before the diet brooke's favorite food item was biscuts....so it made complete sense. it was precious to see. it reminds me of the passage....though you have not seen ME you still believe. thanks brooke for the reminder in God's word.
today we went to walmart....her trip there went very well...as we were walking she noticed the sign of "PETS" w/the picture of a cat and dog....and she said "cat". it was great. it was very busy in walmart...when does it ever slow down...but for that split second my world stopped to notice the un-noticeable.
brooke is showing me a different vision. One that i can't afford to lose.
