Nathan and Cora

What a wonderful week we had with Nathan and Cora while Shawn, Kathy and Ian were in Minnesota. It was difficult and I died to myself many times throughout the week, but certainly not as much as Ellie and Shane. They played cars, Barbies, made 6 forts, read books, changed pull ups, swam, fed and interacted like mini parents all week long! It was an evidence of God's grace in their lives. Mid week, Shane asked me if this is what it would be like when Sophie Rose came home. I explained that in some respects it would be, but probably not with the intensity of having two small children at the same time. We were so blessed by Kathy and Shawn's parenting as Nathan and Cora played so well together and were obedient most of the time. It was so lovely watching the two of them play and talk together. He calls her "sissy" and she calls him "Naty."
