Leaving Makenna

This couldn't have gone more perfect. And it's all thanks to God. He truly made this a smooth transition for all of us. As many of you know I was terrified of leaving Makenna for a week with family. I had never been apart from her for more than 24 hours since her birth. So I knew it was going to be tough on me. Plus, Makenna is such a Momma's girl that she even cries sometimes when I leave her with Brett. Sad huh? She really does love her Daddy, but at this time in her life, prefers me. Well I cried when I gave her over to Polly and Bethany. And Makenna didn't cry at all. Which made me handle it better then I thought I would. Now when we were in Mexico, I did have to call them every night just to make sure she was doing fine. But turns out she was a perfect little angel for them. They said I have the best baby in the whole world. And I do know that. I've always told Brett I wish I could multiply her times 4 and I would be perfectly satisfied with having four children. But I find myself very scared because I know the next one will probably be totally different. I better start praying now. Anyways... after every time we would call home from Mexico, I was reassured that I could go another day without her. And that she was going to be OK. Thanks for those of you who I asked to pray for me. The prayers worked. When we got home, it took her about 5-10 minutes before she let me hold her, she clung to Bethany. I did look different, very tan, hair was lighter so she would look at me and play shy and cling to Bethany again. When she did finally come to me, she never stopped smiling. And she's Momma's girl once again.
