Joyeux Anniversaire

We have much reason to celebrate lately...Jonathan and Oliver being the biggest (click on the pic to view album)! An overnight stay in Paris and a wild, toddler bash marked the turn of the year for these two studs. We are grateful for another year of growing in family life together and for the opportunity to study French this year. It continues to be a lot of hard work, but we remain hopeful that the seeds of learning now will reap a harvest in our ministry that lies ahead. We are also encouraged by glowing moments in present life when we can effectively buy bread, get a haircut, talk with soccer buddies, greet people at church or around town and wade through our prenatal appointments. Everyday is full of learning.
