Quick visit

Papo and GramO and Alidu came for a quick visit in July. It was wonderful to see them and they even got to join us for a baptismal service. A 12 year old girl was baptized! ConLai had fun playing in the water with Lucas after the service. Lucas is a youth leader who came with us to Chicago in July and who is wonderful with kids. Juliana wasn't all about the water at that point.

Daddy's girls

“Daddddyyyyy!!!”

When you get home we shout with glee!

The sound of the garage opening

And the car door shutting,

Sends us in a flurry to “Hide!” “Hide!”

Little giggles from a corner send tide

Just so you'll find us to throw into the air

You could take us anywhere

From the air to the rodeo

To ride in a horse show

Or wrestle you to the ground.

You take us to the fair

And win me my own teddy bear.

I'll grin from ear to ear
Proud to be your girlBecause who needs a prince?When I've got my Daddy.

A silly story or 2 for your day~

CONLAI
On our way to Sioux Falls, Anthony said, "I wanna go 85."
ConLai said from the backseat, "Daddy, I don't wanna die."

JULIANA
While playing in the living room, Juliana's playful face made an abrupt change to focused. She made a beeline for her bedroom and came out with a bobo in her hand and in her mouth. Something had triggered her thoughts to her pacifier and she decided she must have it.
