Silas Doctor report

Silas went to the Dr. on Tues for his one year check up. He was 18lbs. 6 oz. This is great since at his 9 month in May he was only 14lbs. He gained 4 lbs iin 3 months. We are so glad. Of course he had reflux and they gave him meds. we used it for a week or two but it did not change his behavior so I dropped the bottle and started him with milk and regular food. This was when he was 9 months and that explaines why he gained all the weight. He loves to eat now. Everything he canget his hands on.

First Day of school

Monday was the first day of school. Jeremiah is in the 4th grade.
Mollie is in the second grade.
Titus is in Kindergarden. This is his first time going to school. He was so excited about it that he did not go to sleep until 11 the night before. He loves it so far.
Titus in the great room waiting to go to there class.
Mollie waiting as well. That is as far as the parents can go on the first day.

They have done well this week especially since we ahve had revival this week as well.

More of the island

Each day we would work on the college campus or do wahtever the missionary would ask of us and then the evening we would go to the bays to snorkel or cool off. We had no air condition all week so we had to cool our body temperature some how.
One of the bays
Magens Bay one of the top ten beaches in the world. We went there on our off day. The teens snorkeled with a sea turtle.
Pastor Charles he was the missionary that we worked with. This Silas and him after services. Jospeh preached for the mroning and the girls sang and Donna played the piano. Ben preached that night. We were blessed by being there.

Virgin Island

This was our view from outside the dorm.Coconut tree
Girls Dorm. We stayed a Bluewater Bible Collge. It was on one end of the island and the church was on the other. The island is only 14 miles long but very steep hills.
View of how steep everything was. We had to walk up the hill everyday for meals in the cafeteria that we cooked.
Iguanas. They were everywhere, on the road, this one was in a persons yard when we passed out tracts.

My Children

My Children here on earth and heaven.

August 3rd, 2007

Today 5 years ago Logan went home to be with Jesus. Today we went to the cemetery to visit Logan's place. We go take a picture and sing a song we have song from day one. We talked about the day some with the children. They seem to remember all the good things. We do too but remember the actually event of sadness too. This morning it was hard to check on Silas because we were afraid but once we saw his smile we lost the fear and we excited that we have him. God knows all and one day we will see him. Just knowing that as of today all my children will be heaven is wonderful. We still pray for Silas for salvation but the others have made profession.

It has been a busy couple of weeks for us. We had camp two weeks ago which went well. This was Jeremaih first time to go to camp. It was boot camp at the WILDS. He loved it and made a grand decision to be a youth pastor. We were excited about that. Then we got back and went to the Sword Conference for a few days. AN dnow we are home for a week. On sunday I will take the 3 big kids to my Mom's so that we can got to a Missions trip to St. Thomas. We leave early on Tues. the 7th and will be back on the 14th. This is not a vacation we will be sweating it with no air all week. Then when we get back Birthday party for Silas which I will share. I will keep you posted.
