new home, fun times

I got a gift this weekend - a surprise gift. My globe-trotting brother stopped by for a quick weekend visit. Awesome!!! It was just what I needed, being so far from family.

I'm so proud of my brother (actually, all of my brothers), and he can make me laugh like none other. Thanks for driving those 8 or so extra hours, Jesse! We loved having you here.
The latest and greatest of Elijah's therapy adventures, playing with soggy rice and oatmeal. :)
We had the privilege of watching one of our friend's daughters for the day. Elijah is a little social bug and loves, loves, loves having another kid around the house.

Elijah's learning that he can play the piano if he kicks his legs so he rolls forward on the ball.

"Here, Elijah, play it like this"

We are all moved into "our" new house, which we will rent until it sells or we buy another house...or whatever else the Lord has planned! God has blessed us beyond explanation with this beautiful house to rent, and we are so thankful! It has already provided us numerous opportunities to give God glory in our conversations with friends and neighbors. Praise Him!
