us6 for a day

Spring break means a change in routine,

and opportunities to do some special things...

Like becoming a family of six

while Michael's little buddy M spends the day with us!

Michael and M on the way to our house

It's been a very long time since we've had a little man around the house.

Stirring up a batch of pancakes

His little eyes see all that is new and exciting about the world,

challenging us to remember the wonder...

A piggy back ride up the street

Even a ride in a taxi is full of endless delight and excitement.

Counting all the other taxis on the road!

With a little downtime to rest,

and time to play with friends,

A rousing game of Duck Duck Goose

it was a full and wonderful day.

Thanks for sharing it with us, M!

You won my heart by bringing me a beautiful flower!

We're so thankful for the community of family we share,

a true fulfillment of Jesus' promise in Luke:

“Truly I tell you,” Jesus said to them, 

“no one who has left home or wife or brothers or sisters or parents or children 

for the sake of the kingdom of God  

will fail to receive many times as much in this age, 

and in the age to come eternal life.”

Luke 18:29-30
