So it's been a while since I have had time to post. A lot has happened. A couple of months ago, Jeff tragically lost one of his best friends. He was heartbroken. He was one of Jeff's mission companions,and they had kept in close contact ever since. It was a really tough time for him, I think he is moving on. He doesn't talk about it much. Then, a month ago, my Grandma passed away. She was 81, but her death was unexpected. She had some sort of cold that she did not seem to worried about, but she succumbed to it. Her funeral was amazing. She is a woman I truely admire. She dedicated her life to raising 12 kids, all of whom felt deeply of her love. She was very selfless, and just all around amazing. I hope I can be that kind of mother.
We have also had some great things happening as well. We spent time with both of our families over the Christmas break. I soaked up all the Brookie time I could get while on the break. I loved it. Jeff and I have both started a new semester. It has been so busy! (Hence the practically dead blog.) I have 5 classes and 3 clients I am working with this semester. I also grade quizzes for a class of 150 every other week. It really does not leave much free time. Now, I also have to start working on my thesis. I hope I survive! Jeff is being a great support. He is juggling his 4 classes and taking care of Brook in his spare time. She adores her daddy. He also just finished a big side job. He is workin hard! We also bought Brook a toddler bed last week. So far, it has gone beetter than I anticipated. It hasn't been perfect, but overall, she is so good about sleeping in her bed. I think she really likes it. Then, when she wakes up in the mornings and after naps, she just comes running out, and it's a cute surprise. We figured we better do this before attempting the potty training, which should be coming in a few months. Sorry I don't have more to say. I hope you all are doing well!!
