The Love of My Life ... and Mother of My Children

Yes, that's you! Happy Mother's Day, soon-to-be Grandma.
The kids are a testimony to the great job you have done and continue to do. Thanks for letting me "make" you a Mom (he he he).

Speaking of Birthdays ...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY,
MEGAN!!!
It seems like only yesterday that we were holding you in our arms. Now you are 134 days or so away from making history for your own family on another special birthday. We love you and continue to pray for you and Marc as you live your adventure with God. You're a great daughter and will make a super mom!

Proud of you!
Ethan, there have been moments when you weren't sure when you'd firm up an internship. But patience and persistence have paid off! I'm proud of your hard work and accomplishments so far ... and confident in your ability to "finish strong" next year. Who knows how God will lead and provide for you with future employment. Though sometimes a little nerve-wracking for us, He always has our best in mind ... at the perfect time. Stay dependent on Him.

Is it a boy or a girl???
After lots of speculation and some "kicking and squirming" by that little one, on May 8th the verdict is in. I know, but I can't tell! If you don't already know ... and want to, call Marc and Megan.

Short Expedition
Here's my favorite shot from a set of photos I took yesterday. It was in a small park with a conservatory, near our residence. Not very big, but I got a few interesting pix. Click here to see the set.

Surprises
We love our kids and their spouses! Last night we were thrilled when Marc announced on the phone that he had suggested to Megan they move to Chicago after their baby is born to establish their own family. I think Debra nearly jumped out of her skin!

But more exciting than the fact that they might be close by is that they are really seeking God's will for their future. I can't write much now ... because of time, but I want to go on record to say that I'd rather have them on the other side of the world and living with Christ as the Center of their lives than living next door and not! Marc & Megan and Ethan & Caroline, that will always be my desire and prayer for you.
