God´s mystery- Joseph´s fascination with things that disappear and reappear

I realize that for a long time I hadn´t written, but that doesn´t verify that nothing was occuring during those months. Finally, God has given me the momentum that I was eager for: a determination to bridge the gap of communicating God´s testimonies in, through, and around our family.

As of today, after reading up on child development, I realized that peek-a-boo is more than a childhood game. It is an entire process of founding truths about a baby´s perception of the world around him or her, they are discovering that things that disappear don´t leave forever, if not they realize they can reappear and hence when they discover that truth, they begin looking for them when taken from their sight.

As parents, there is a special awe about your children making these discoveries, it opens up your worldview to almost a rediscovery of so many pure and simple joys in life: like delighting in someone else´s gain. Today, we couldn´t help but video Joseph Abraham and he´s sheer delight of Daddy´s animal sounds with a pop-up toy from Grandma Carol. Such are the moments I hope to treasure in this lifetime to carry us through the tough parts.

Enjoy his reaction. It is totally Joseph (when excited he jerks his whole body and eventually squeals at the top of his lungs). Hope you are inspired to rediscover some of these simple revelations only God can bring.
