April 25

April 25:  Today we spent time with our friends and their new daughter.  Molli and Helen both loved talking to Grace in Chinese.  Both Molli and Helen are missing the little kids in their lives.  After we left, Helen said she just wanted to spend more time with Grace.  Later we got together for cards and Helen and Grace had more time together.   Kevin was able to snap this shot of all three of us after breakfast.  It is nice to have a record that I am the adult along on this trip!   We are looking forward to joining our church via the internet for worship in just a few more hours.  Since half the kids have strep at home, I am sure they will be logging into worship, too.  Please pray for John.  He has already had one twin at ER with strep and he is waiting for the next one to fire up her fever.  Two of our older kids also have strep. Why do these things always happen on the weekend?  Juli is healthy and a HUGE help to her dad right now.   As we close our Sunday with worship, you are just beginning.  May you rejoice and be glad in Him.
