With Grateful Hearts

With grateful hearts for family and friends, for those near to us and those who are near in our hearts. For hope and joy, and sorrow and struggles. For laughter and tears, and the songs that He gives along the way. But most of all for Jesus...the Author and Finisher of our faith. It is with grateful hearts that we share with you here.

Sunday Snapshot

For my very first ever "Sunday Snapshot"...here's our beautiful Little Miss Faith! Home 10 months!!

Little Miss Faith...she's the life of every party. She's our social butterfly.

Mitchell says he can't remember what life was like before she came...
perhaps we were bored and just didn't know it because we had never met Faith yet...

There are NO making quick stops at the store with this girl. She has to have a lengthy conversation with every person she comes in contact with...while shopping...while waiting in the checkout line...she shares many (too many) details about our life...she asks many questions. Her conversations usually start out like this, "I'm Faif. Who are you?" The other day, she told a man, "I'm just going to the potty. Where are you going?"
Sometimes you don't always feel like talking to EVERYONE in the store. With "Faif", this is not an option.

Cherie,
First of all, what a darling girl! I'm laughing about how you say she talks to everyone at the store, that's just like my Darcy. Funny thing about that is that she's only been home four months so her English is only so-so. I can hardly imagine how many folks she'll entertain when she can really communicate...
And to my knowledge Dale and Yolanda do not have a blog. In fact they are the only family that seems to have dropped off the face of the earth since our travel group got home. Of course with 11 girls in the home AND two more daughters who are grown with children of their own in the area, I can excuse her for being busy...
If I ever hear about her having a blog I'll let you know! I hope they do, or at least start one, I miss them!
