The Padilla Pad: A Sick but Happy Day
http://thepadillapad.blogspot.com/2013/05/i-never-thought-helping-someone-throw.html
This is eternal life, that they may know You, the one true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." John 17:3. Wednesday, May 8, 2013. A Sick but Happy Day. I never thought helping someone throw up would bring me so much joy. Today Olivia woke up sick. She gets this stomach bug every so often and today she is weak and nauseated, and I've been tucking her in, cuddling her, and speaking softly and lovingly into her ear when she has to throw up. Who are called according to His purpose." Romans 8:28. And a...

This is eternal life, that they may know You, the one true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." John 17:3. Wednesday, October 24, 2012. At first she was very squirmy, as she has been from the beginning; always wired and never wanting to just be still for more than 15 seconds. The more we rocked each day the more quiet and still she became, looking up at me, and the more we have became not just a woman in a chair holding a little girl but a mother and a daughter. He will gather the lambs in his arms;.

The Padilla Pad: Boy vs. Girl
http://thepadillapad.blogspot.com/2013/01/boy-vs-girl.html
This is eternal life, that they may know You, the one true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." John 17:3. Wednesday, January 16, 2013. Boy vs. Girl. One reason it's super fun to have a boy and a girl is because we get to see the amazing ways God uniquely creates males and females. There are such differences, and so early on in life! And she pokes her stubby little finger around her face. I start at his forehead and he says "Mmm, that feels good! You are soo right. Such a difference between boy...

The Padilla Pad: A Very Blessed Mama
http://thepadillapad.blogspot.com/2013/05/a-very-blessed-mama.html
This is eternal life, that they may know You, the one true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." John 17:3. Tuesday, May 14, 2013. A Very Blessed Mama. Today was my first official Mother's Day! We had the kids last year - my mom was here and made it special by potting a basil plant and baking a cake for me - but this year it was official since the kids were adopted in November. I am still impressed. Then Danny presented a project he had made at school, a little book - here are my two favorite pages:.

The Padilla Pad: The Sweetest Thing
http://thepadillapad.blogspot.com/2013/07/the-sweetest-thing.html
This is eternal life, that they may know You, the one true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." John 17:3. Tuesday, July 30, 2013. This is what has been gracing my counter top for the past two and a half weeks. Over the years seeing this sweet clutter on other people’s counters always made me smile because of who. Now here I am with a cute grassy drying rack becoming part of the set of my kitchen and daily routine. And it thrills me because of who. Would you like to hear about it? In March we start...

This is eternal life, that they may know You, the one true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." John 17:3. Sunday, September 23, 2012. Mike got home recently from being gone for 4 months overseas. I steered clear of sharing anything online; we try to be super careful about sharing too much information. Most nights of the deployment Olivia prayed, "Dear Jesus, thank you Daddy come home, us, hurry hurry." And we are SO thankful God answered our daily prayers for a safe return! Our lovely family membe...

The Padilla Pad: Danny Boy
http://thepadillapad.blogspot.com/2012/11/danny-boy.html
This is eternal life, that they may know You, the one true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." John 17:3. Tuesday, November 27, 2012. Our son has the goofiest way of smiling for pictures. He says the funniest things, but not always on purpose. Mom, I think that man is from Mexico because he looks a little Jewish.". When he prays, I am amazed at my God who can do so much in such a young heart. He sleeps with one of Michael's t-shirts under his head and snuggles up to one of mine:. He is SO funny!
