"The joy of motherhood comes in moments." -Unknown
What else have we done over the past month? Well...
I got Jojo's school area read for our homeschool preschool year, which starts tomorrow. I'm so excited to see all he will learn!
We had a park play date at Lake Daniel Park with the MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) Program mommies and children from our church. Because of Jojo's separation anxiety this will be the first year I'm doing MOPS with Westover. Even still, he will be staying with my parents when I'm at MOPS sessions (2 Tuesday mornings a month) instead of in MOPS childcare to make the separation a little easier for him. But I'm so excited to join this group of ladies and deepening my walk with the Lord!
We had a La Leche Family potluck dinner at Country Park this past Friday evening to celebrate National Breastfeeding Month. La Leche is positively one of the best things I ever got involved in...have so much fun with these mommies and their families!
After the potluck on Friday evening, we got home and got word that one of our good friends was having emergency surgery at Wesley Long to fix a complication from a surgery she'd had earlier in the week. So we headed to the hospital to hang out with her husband while she was in surgery. Jojo was as happy in the waiting room of Wesley Long Hospital at 10pm as he ever is anywhere. Love this sweet child!
Yesterday (Saturday) morning the three of us went to a pro-life rally in front of the Greensboro Planned Parenthood, one of 300 such rallies going on in front of Planned Parenthood locations across the country on Saturday. I could write an entire separate blog post (and likely will soon) on how the rights of our unborn are without a doubt one of the heaviest issues on my heart, especially recently. But for now, I'll just leave you with some pictures from our time there. Everything was very peaceful, and I was thrilled with the amount of support the pro-life cause got that day!
A little later on yesterday, we headed to Sedgefield County Club to catch the Wyndham Championships. We had a great time, although Joseph decided a PGA tournament is a great venue for a nap.
And finally, I'll leave you with some random pictures taken over the past month!

| Jojo has YET to successfully use the potty, but his trash truck is getting pretty decent at it apparently. |
 |
| Jojo has been having trouble sleeping through the night for the past 3-4 months, so a lot of nights he sleeps with us all or part of the night. Love this cuddle bug! |

Whew! Well there you have it, our life for the past month! Really, seriously going to try to get back on a weekly blogging schedule for real now! :-)
