Favorite toys!

Our newest little member of the Schmidt family... Nola Jean! Nola is now 3 months old. She has continued to swim in life's pool and learn and grow as the books say she should. I like to tease her momma that she is "making cream for our Nola jean"... growth is obvious every time you see her! They have now made their first home up in Mpls., Mn. It is a very nice apartment indeed. It is the 3rd floor of the old Sears building which has been reconstructed into apartments and the "Global Market". The last time Nola was home Lacey was reading that she should be having a "favorite toy" by now... Nola's interest in toys up to this point was pretty much zero. I told Lacey she should write a new page that says "my baby does not have a favorite toy yet, however, her favorite color is red and she is learning to spell it." But, sure enough the next day I got a TXT from lacey saying "Nola has been batting the toys hanging on her swing all morning... a new favorite toy?" Isn't it funny how yes, most kids do things around the same time... but not always and that is okay too. I love the song to Jesus about
..."In His time, in His time, He makes all things beautiful in His time"
...our little Nola will do things in His time - and that is okay with us!! Even if she really can't spell red yet! We will wait patiently and love totally as she grows into the life that God has planned for her.
...and I almost forgot... Nola is waiting for a new little girl cousin to be born in January,2011.
...and maybe by then she will be ready to "borrow out" her favorite toy!!
