Tears...
last night the girls and i were saying our prayers and it was Cora's turn... she starts praying about crazy stuff so decided to help her a little... i said " please bless the people with no food, that they will be fed..." and "please bless the people with no home that they will find shelter" by the end of the prayer i notice that tears are streaming down her sweet face. i ask her why she is crying and she tells me "i don't want anybody to not have food or shelter.." at this point she begins to sob. i was like "honey, thats why we pray... so Heavenly Father will bless those people in need and we can be grateful for what we have been given.."
totally didn't help, she cried for 20 more minutes... thank goodness my mom called, i put her on the phone and they "talked about it" YaYa asked Cora if she believed Heavenly Father and she said "uh-huh" then she told her not to worry because he heard her prayer and would help those people in need. what a tender heart that child has. she is so goofy most of the time that i forget just how sweet she is.

From the kiddy pool... to the big pool... in one week!
then
and
NOW
these kids literally spent one week at the lake w/ granny and Papa and came back fully swimming... like we're talking back flips and jumps and swimming underwater...
its like a little switch flipped and they both just figured it out!
I've got to be honest...
totally scared the crap out of me when Cora showed me her new "moves"... i jumped right in after her and i HATE getting wet
