From there: 
To here:
Our pastor recently talked about this in relation to our spiritual growth. Whether it's from there to here or from here to there I pray that Chris and I will continue to grow up in our faith and pass that along to Jackson from an early age. My new "from here/there" thoughts came through this week when I picked up Jackson from school. It was pouring down rain and the owner's son, Chad, was eagerly waiting with a golf umbrella to assist those of us not lucky enough to park under the carport. It's little things like this that make me think of Jackson and how I pray that he will get from here (a playful tot) to there (a kind-hearted young man). It's a lofty challenge as a parent, isn't it?!
Switching gears entirely, this month has been about Jackson's new seating opportunities. He's been a real pro with all of his new endeavors. New seats include the grocery cart seat, booster seat, tub seat, and his new car seat:
He's assuming the crawling position, but can't quite figure out what to do yet. It's only a matter of time. I'm sure month 8 will be full of mobility fun!
