Be diligent to know the state of your flocks, And attend to your herds; For riches are not forever, Nor does a crown endure to all generations. When the hay is removed, and the tender grass shows itself, and the herds of the mountains are gathered in, The lambs will provide your clothing, And the goats the price of a field; You shall have enough goat's milk for your food, For the food of your household, And the nourishment of your maidservants. Prov. 27:23-27

Life...

Hello everyone,
Getting pictures on here is still a problem. My mom has tried many times but can't get it to work. So, I will write up a post but it might not be as interesting as looking at all the pics of my cute little bro.
Having a baby around the house is great fun! Becca and I fight to hold him, get him to sleep, stop him from crying, change his diper, get him from the nursrey after church, etc. He has very bright eyes and has given us a few short little smiles which is surprising b/c he is only two and a half weeks old. I saw him do it this morning, it was so sweet! He will probably be baptised on the 27th. Maybe some of you guys will be able to make it for that.
This past weekend my family went to the Aylmer fair. We went mainly b/c Rebecca showed her 4-H calf in the holstien show and two kinds of 4-H shows. She came home with several ribbons which she is very happy for. While we were there I went to the midway a few times but only went on one ride- the ferris wheel. Jeremy went with me and we were both scared. I don't remember being scared on ferris wheels before but this time I closed my eyes almost the whole ride, not daring to look down.
This week I am helping at our church's VBS. My friend Rachel K. and I are teaching the 4&5 year olds from our church. We had four boys in our class this morning, it was fun. There will be more as the week goes on.
That's all I have to tell you for now. I'll try to post more often from now on.

HI Karen,
WE just got back from Alberta. I wish I didn't have to miss the fair, but it was nice to see all the relatives on MOm's side, well almost all of them. See you tomorrow @VBS. How can you be scared of a ferris wheel? Except for the little kids rides, that is the least scary. You should have gone on the octopus. Now THAT is FUN!!!

Thanks for giving us a little glimpse into your home! I'm sure your mom is thankful to have the help of her daughters in caring for this precious new boy. (as long as you don't really fight about it!) :) We are eager to see him this month sometime! May the Lord bless your family -- and the VBS this week, too!
Hi from Rachel & Maria to you & your sisters!

Hey Karen, That is soo to bad about the pictures! I so wish my Mom had remember the camera when she went, oh well. It's too bad we didn't see you this past weekend, but I'm already counting down the days till the 27th!! Can't wait to see you there!

I can't believe he's actually going to be a month old by the time we see him!! :(
