A Year In the Life

This picture is something of a miracle.

Since we moved here, Jess has found going to Young Women activities a struggle - to say the least.  All the YW have made huge efforts to include her and be nice to her, but the language barrier is always there and Jess has had a really hard time with that.  Every Wednesday, we have the same fight - Jess doesn't want to go to YW, and I make her, then she is mad at me for the rest of the night.

So, you can imagine my surprise when she informed me last Sunday that she'd invited the YW to our house for their Wednesday night activity.  I tried not to break into my Happy Dance, but it was hard.  I've been playing it cool all week, but I am delighted that she felt comfortable enough to ask these girls over.  

I know this doesn't necessarily mean that our Wednesday night fights are over, but hey - Baby Steps!
