laughter fills my house and it is so wonderful. Last night the girls and I had been swimming and having a wonderful time til the Bats decided to nose dive at us. We quickly decided that swimming was no longer fun, but scary so we decided to get out. But before the bats came out, we were having a pretty good time playing in the pool. Charlotte likes the pool, but she would rather just walk around the deck naked and walk up to the edge of the pool like she wants in then runs away. She is so funny, her little personality is really coming out. "No-No" is her new word and that is all we hear. No matter if she wants it or not, "No-No" and shakes her head no. Charlotte likes to play boo and we walk around the cabinet that separates the kitchen from the living room. I let her see me walking around it a few times and she begins to follow, then I get a little ahead of her and scare her:) Then she turns around and chases me around the cabinet and you can hear her saying "BOO". Charlotte is such a sweet and loving child. She loves her sisters and she loves Daddy and me:) Brian walks in from work and Charlotte gets a grin on her face that covers her whole face and squeals and squirms til Brian picks her up:) If any one lays in the floor, well you may as well be ready for a wallering. Charlotte will sit on top of you and try to tickle your neck and bounce on your tummy and just waller you to death. It is so funny to watch her do this to her sisters.
There are so many things about my little angel that I just love and then there is one thing that I hate. I love every thing about her, I love to hear her laugh and cry and scream and grunt for me to hold her. I hate that we live from Cardiology appointment to Cardiology appointment wondering when we have to go back to Charleston for what ever has to be done. I hope that by her second birthday we know what we have to do. Last cardiology appointment, Dr. Horne told us that a heart cath will determine if surgery is required or not, so we wait for the day for the dreaded heart cath. Remember last heart cath, 2 days post cath Charlotte ended up in the hospital for a week with a partial bowel obstruction:( So I am not looking forward to a heart cath for many reasons. We have a cardiology appointment August 18th so hopefully we have a little more info then.
Anyway, back to the good things in life...... I am just so thankful that we have Charlotte. I am thankful that we get to hear her laugh and see her play and pretty much act like a normal little girl. Life has been so much better having her in it! Thank you Lord for all that you have done for us!
