Natalia

So i just got home from an exhuasting day. Trying to keep my head on straight while trying to close on our house. All the paperwork can be absolutely mind warping. I have 2 weddings to do this weekend & am absolutely pressured with that & trying to pack my whole house & move by the end of the month! Had to lead worship tonight, strained my voice a little. So nevertheless I am tired.

I Let Natalia sit on my lap in the driver's seat of my car, relax it was just across the parking lot of the church to the parsonage we live in. She loves it when I let her do that. It makes her feel like a big girl. Got home & we sat at our dinning table to have a quick snack before bed. Out of the blue, she says to me, "Daddy, you're the missing piece to my puzzle." OMG! I asked her again to make sure I heard her correctly & that was it! word for word. I kid you not. I was blown away! Wow. How can something so deep come out of a little 2 1/2 yr old's heart. I seriously underestimate her. Then if that wasn't enough, she follows it up with, "Daddy, you're my best friend." Take me now Jesus! What else is left to experience in life than the love of my little girl. Way to make a long day end beautifully. I never thought being a dad would be so rewarding. Well, Natalia's in bed, & I'm still tired, but with a smile on my face:) I'm out.
