Nikki is 22 today!

NIKKI ON THE RIGHT AT AGE 11

And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2 Corinthians 12:9

Thought I'd stop in for awhile..it's been too long! So much has happened..Naomi and Daniel graduated from high school, Naomi turned 17, Mandi turned 11, Nikki is now 22, my mom and dad came out for the graduation and a visit, meeting three new grandchildren (2 of my little ones and one of my sister's!), Courtney bought her first car... My goodness, things happen so fast.

The little ones are so precious and learning much everyday. They bring us so much joy! They will be 2,3,and 4 in September and October. They keep us laughing, and they love to make messes for us, and I wouldn't trade any of them for all the riches in the world!

It's such a blessing to have the garden producing now! I guess somehow we didn't plant any zucchini. Oh well,  living out here in farm country if you don't lock your car doors, folks will fill them with zucchini, so we should be ok!!

It's amazing that Ted and I have been parents for 22 years. The Lord has been so good and faithful to us. I remember where I was this day 22 years ago! Nikki has been a precious daughter. She's never given us a bit of trouble, and we are so happy that she still choses to be home with us. :) Lacey absolutely adores her, and she, Lacey.

Well, I need to get a few more minutes of sleep before the littles wake up! Please remember us when you prayer.

Love,
Kim
