Praise

"O LORD, you are my God; I will exalt you and praise your name, for in perfect faithfulness you have done marvelous things, things planned long ago." Isaiah 25:1

Another thing we have been enjoying recently with David as the kids are getting older is telling them about the Kingdom of God. It's amazing how much they can understand and remember this early on. What a responsibility and what an honor to raise them to know Jesus and God their Creator and Savior.

They just come the way they are (even if it's in diaper in the middle of a grassy field)

Marvelous

Lili is the kind of child who stops and smells the roses (similar to her mom). Sometimes it means that she is the one we need to wait for a long time until she catches up with everybody during our walk/hike in the nature. We love that about her because it's so Lili like.

Spontaneously

Another reason, why I love being around children is that they are so spontaneous and spunky.

I enjoy watching them as they spontaneously embrace the magic of the moment.

See Hanna experessing her love.

"Love must be sincere"- Romans 12:9

Joy

"The joy of the Lord is our strength." Nehemiah 8:10

It is so beautiful to discover this as we watch our children's joy come forth every day. It's a treasure, it's a joy and the Lord indeed grants us so much strength through this.

long time no posts...

Wow, I feel bad that we have not posted anything for such a long time.
It just means that we had such busy and fun summer.
Now we are easing into this beautiful early fall.

I am deligently working on uploading the best moments of this summer.
Until the new slideshow would be up I found some neat little photos of some of kids, which inspired me.
See next posts.

Happy Father's Day David!

What Makes a Dad

God took the strenght of a mountain,

The majesty of a tree,

The warmth of a summer sun,

The calm of a quiet sea,

The generous soul of nature,

The comforting arm of night,

The wisdom of the ages,

The power of the eagle's flight,

The joy of a morning in spring,

The faith of a mustard seed,

The pateience of eternity,

The depth of a family need,

Then God combined these qualities,

When there was nothing more to add,

He know His masterpiece was complete,

And so,

He called it...Dad
