Our weekend

“Sing to God, sing praise to his name, extol him who rides on the clouds — his name is the LORD— and rejoice before him. A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling.” (Psalm 68:4-5)



Over the weekend, we went to Cincinnati to visit my sister and her family. Saturday, we went to the zoo and to the Reds vs. Red Sox game. Sunday was extra special because we celebrated Father's Day, Maggie Leigh and McKenna Grace's baby dedication at church, and after church we celebrated Maggie's 2nd birthday.

All of us at the zoo....

My 4 favorite men......Psalm 127:3 "Sons are a heritage from the LORD, children a reward from him."

1st, you are a fabulous writer ... i shared your post from the DMV w/so many and they laughed their heads off. I would have done the exact same thing ... Can't tell you have many people I stopped and talked to that had Chinese children before I brought Emily home ...Amen, on sharing your story, because it is all about the Father and His amazing provisions for us ... I am praying here daily for your safety and swift travel ... love you all !!! I need your email so I can add you to my book list ..
