Yesterday was our first time back to church since the girls were born. I am really proud of us for actually making it on time! It was great to see so many smiling faces of friends. Many of them were such encouragers and it blesses our family so much to see or hear from them, even if it is for just brief minute.
I love that we are able to drop off our children in a place where we know they will be taken care of in a loving manner. Our oldest learned that it is pretty cool to put goldfish in his water! Our second cried for a good bit until he was given snack...i think they learned that if they feed him he'll calm down. That boy can eat all day if you let him! Every time he goes into the kitchen he goes to the pantry door and says "Cracker". And them we have the girls, they just sat with some sweet ladies and drank their milk and slept. How great it was yesterday to know that our children were safe, happy and loved while we were able to sit under our pastor.
The subject our pastor taught on was a great one to come back to. It affirmed in my mind and heart something I had been processing regarding a missionary family. In college i had the opportunity to visit and serve along side them for a few weeks. It was great to talk through this yesterday and come up with an action plan for when they are on stateside assignment next year. So i ask that you will join with us as we pray through how we can best serve and encourage them when they are home next year.
Happy Monday!
