Reflections of a New Granddad...

It was good to see the family. Almost everyone was here to see Niah. Shawn, Mike and David left for Indiana yesterday afternoon. Mandy and Andy have just left for home today. After saying goodbye to my mom and Rose, (thanks for the LR B&B) we've headed to Jonathan's abode. We too will be leaving today. We may or may not drive to spend the night with Andy and Amanda in Evansville before heading back to Anderson. They are heading for England later this month. Timothy seems to have enjoyed his week of independence. Jonathan and Kristine are adjusting well. They have the look of new parents... tired but joyful. Their's is a life of upcoming adjustments as they get to know Niah. It was also good to see our friends at Faith in North Little Rock too. What a privilege to be at church with my son, daughter-in-law and Niah. I will be able to say that I was in church with them on the first day she went to church. I marvel at God's goodness and grace towards us, as we celebrated His love, and introduced Niah to what I pray will be a life long event... celebrating and worshipping our loving God and Savior! I pray that God greatly use her in her life, and give her the strength, faith and courage to meet the challenges and opportunity that life affords. What an awesome God we serve!
