Party Anyone?
We had a wonderful graduation celebration for our oldest son Samuel this past Saturday. Several friends that we hadn't seen in a while were able to come as well as family and some church family.
Joshua shared a song modified from a poem Laura had written. Zechariah shared some thoughts about his big brother. Laura shared some prayers over the years from time without children to Samuel's' cancer to today as he enters college.
It took all week to empty and transform the shop. Laura didn't miss a detail. She is really quite gifted in this area. Trisha, David and Stephny really helped us out the day of cleaning and making final preparations. They ere all such a blessing to our family.
To see how God has changed Samuel's heart to love as he has been loved is a blessing beyond measure.
It is really hard to believe that we had snow just a week prior. Six inches at that. The weather was beautiful. Chrissy put on a wonderful Contra dance as usual. It really was a fun time. We just want to thank everyone who came and celebrated with us.
Blessings to you all.
1 John4: 7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 9 This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son {9 Or his only
begotten Son} into the world that we might live through him.10 This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for {10 Or as the one who would turn aside his wrath, taking away} our sins.11 Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.12 No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.13 We know that we live in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.

It was really uplifting that Mike and Krista plus kids (cousins) were able to come and stay Sunday for a visit.
