Guests and Gifts

We have been richly blessed during the past week and a half with friends who have come to visit and have brought dinners and/or other gifts. When I have time, I want to backtrack a little and post about previous visitors...but for now, I'll just put up these pictures from today.
~ Janet Blosser, the director of children's ministry at our church...she came bearing flowers for me (well, for all of us, but mostly me!) and a sticker/activity book for Josiah and one for David...the boys thoroughly enjoyed their new books and stayed occupied with them most of the afternoon and early evening after naptime
~ the beautiful flowers from Janet
~ I love the container that the flowers are in!
~ Josiah and David working on a sticker book together...Josiah offered to help David with his; and for quite a long time, they worked very peacefully together...moments like that are treasured by this mommy! :)

I'd come visit too, but, well, the whole *really* long car ride thing makes it a bit tough. Glad everyones well and happy!

Copy that! Those peaceful sibling moments are the best! They do seem to happen more often than they use to when they were babies together... we can pray for more like these!!

LOVE those sticker books! We don't bring ours out until we ALL go to the doctor's office. That huge, FULL waiting room can be a bear...but they remain calm and content b/c they love their stickers! ;)
