Cora is doing the cutest things lately. She does the coolest twirl, then she'll usually walk backwards, which looks a whole lot like the moonwalk. She is talking and using more signs...so sweet. She says eat, milk, mommy, daddy, bubba, shoes, hi, bye-bye, uh-oh, no, Baleigh (aka Carleigh), Grammy, Neena, banana, and probably something else I can't remember. She is running around the house, loves to sit and climb on the little table and chairs in the play room, cooks in the play kitchen, builds on the workbench, talks on her phone, and loves to play outside. Cora loves babies. She looks at herself in the mirror, points, smiles and says, "baby." Cora is a dancin' fool! I have to get her dancing on video...hilarious! She likes to play the piano and the guitar. I hope she develops those talents! She is a true girl when it comes to getting dressed, including completing her ensemble with the perfect pair of shoes. Cora is absolutely delighted when Carleigh gets off the bus every day. She runs to the front door, calling for Carleigh and squeals with excitement as soon as she sees her. It is the sweetest thing. She is adorable. Tonight we went to our friend's house and at the spur of the moment, we decided to let her "swim." I'm not sure she was very fond of it at first, but she seemed to enjoy it after a while. She is in her "birthday suit" since I didn't have a bathing suit in the diaper bag. What was I thinking?
Luke was having a good time surfing on the pool floats too!

Thank you for praying for Madi (I misspelled it, Maddie.) Her prayer was answered, and she went to meet her Maker Saturday afternoon around 2. I know she is happy and healed now, but for her family and friends left behind, I'm sure it is bittersweet. Please say a prayer for them.
