I just returned from Arizona after spending two weeks with my niece, Jalyn. She is a precious little thing just like my nephew, CJ. Jalyn may not remember her aunt "P" changing her diapers, fixing her soy milk formula, taking walks to the grocery store, and playing on her baby jungle gym., but for me, it was a blast. I am glad that I could help John and Jessica in taking care of her. I look forward to my next visit although I know that she will grow up quickly.
I was blessed to spend time with CJ when he was 5 days, 6 months, and 8 months old. I cannot believe that he will be 1 year old next week. Pretty soon, I will attend his sporting events, spelling bee tournaments, band concerts, and graduation! Ok...I will slow down a bit, but all I need to do is blink and he will be all grown up!
As I was walking with Jalyn to the grocery store one day, I was thinking how awesome it is that God has already predestined the plans that He has for Jalyn and CJ. It will be their parents', grandparents, trusted godly friends, and this auntie's responsibility to lead them in the way that they should go. There is nothing that we can do to change the plan; we just need to seek God's knowledge and wisdom to determine what is His intentions and make sure that they walk in purpose. That's pretty exciting...God blessed me to be a part of their lives and their future. Whatever it may be, I know something great is in store for the both of them!
Here is to CJ (Curtis, Jr. )and DJ (Diva Jalyn)...may your lives be full of love, joy, and purpose. I will do my best to be a great auntie!
