THE BABIES





















Psalm 100:5
"For the LORD is good;
his mercy is everlasting;
and his truth endureth to all generations."



The girls have been affectionately termed "THE BABIES" by Papa, Mama, Coco, and Emmy. I have been running slack on my blog updates, so we thought some smiles could be brought your way with a few of the latest pictures of "THE BABIES."

Yesterday, Natty surprised me by coming around the corner with Mercy sitting in a Little Tikes Grocery Buggy. She had picked her up and put her in the buggy all by herself. You'd be amazed where Mercy has been hauled to and in by her sisters. Mercy, of course, was squealing with delight. Natty pushed her in that buggy all around the house...and she LIVED!!
What a precious blessing these little girls bring to our house each and every day. You can't help but love them...despite the messes they make. I probably should have been born with my back in the down right position...leaning over to pick up toys. It would have been more useful that way :).

On another note, we are off to pick up our dear COCO in just a few days. We are bringing her home from college in Wisconsin. She has finished her first year in college! JUST the girls are going...Mama, Myself, Emmy, Natty, Marie, and Mercy. The men folk are staying home to work and Andrew has his exams to take at Bob Jones. We are drawing closer to Andrew's graduation time with another semester coming to a close. What a DAY that will be for my beloved husband! As for the Wisconsin trip, we plan to stop in the Chicago area for a day to spend some time with Popop and Gumma-Gum (Andrew's Parents). We should arrive in Wisconsin on Tuesday to help Coco pack up her dorm room and bring her HOME!!! YARD SALES and PAR-TAY HERE WE COME!!! COCO is our number one Yard Saler and she loves the word, "PAR-TAY!"

How Good the Lord has been to help Courtney finish well in her first year. Lord willing, we will be home on Thursday to post some pictures of the adventures we have along the way. We look forward to what God has in store for each of us this summer. May we ALL be used by HIM in a MIGHTY WAY!
