This has always been a mystery to me! The Lord as my husband? I have come to know Him more and more here in the desert as my husband. My sweet earthly husband is so wonderful to me! Here, he’s gone two weeks out of every month in the field…and when he comes home, that […]

Hannah Banana :-)
I thought it was time for a little Hannah update 🙂 Sweet little Hannah has been really coming out of babyhood and learning so many new things…she walks around the house with her Minnie towel dragging behind her everywhere…and looks for Minnie Mouse everywhere she can find her.

He took the kids so often to the pool and playground throughout the […]
A heroic boy
