New "Hamster"


Let's give it up for those kids! They are champs! They are troopers! They have been so flexible. We were reminiscing about the places we have lived in the last few years-from 23 acres in rural Jackson County, to eclectic, sweet Athens in a subdivision, and now they have officially been urbanized in Boston with backpacks, strollers, T passes, wading pools, listening to the panhandlers sing songs, and playing in the fire hydrant! We really don't think they have given it much thought. Partly because we have kept them so busy, but partly because they just love doing life and experiencing new things. We have had several fun "out of the city" days like a day at a campground with some other families in New "Hampster", Walden Pond, and a secret garden hike in Hingham. It has been a huge blessing to see the Lord carry our children through this move and to see Him work in their lives. (sorry for the sideways pictures!)

You guys look like you're having such fun!! What a gift to give your children- the ability to enjoy life ANYWHERE and the confidence of knowing God is always with them and caring for them. Thank you for sharing your lives with us.
