Kids say it best!

Recently Madison and I were doing some errands and we were talking about traveling. I was talking traveling over the ocean. Madison said that she wanted to go on a big ship, but she said that she did not want to go on a ship like the Titanic. I said why not just curious to what she would say. She said "because it sunk". I couldn't help but laugh and say duh to myself.

Kids see, hear and remember much more than we give them credit for. As parents we have a great responsibility to train our children according to the bible. Anything less, it would be better to have a milestone hung around your neck and be thrown into the ocean. (Matt. 18:6)

We have been able to schedule several more meetings praise the Lord!

First Meeting

We were able to schedule our first meeting this week. What an answer to prayer. The last few weeks have been busy, with our mailings and phone calls. It is exciting for Heather and I to talk to our kids about going to the mission field and all of the details that it involves. Surprisingly the 2 older ones seem to understand what is going on. The questions are endless, especially from Madison who asks daily "When are we going to South Africa?"

The nights have finally started to cool off a bit and we have been able to go out in the evenings with the kids and play. If we let them they would play until they just fell over from exhaustion.

This last week we went to the science museum. The kids really enjoy interacting with the exhibits. Madison is our traveler so whenever we get a chance to go somewhere she is in heaven.
