Happy Birthday...and Anniversary

Eleven years ago today, we welcomed our third daughter into the world...never realizing just how complete she made our family. Naomi loves a good pot of coffee (Lebanese is her favorite now, thanks Mrs. Chami!), the thrill of catching or just playing with (or even reading about) snakes, and the adventure of being outdoors rather than inside.

On Naomi's 10th birthday, we flew to Nigeria. But today, we will celebrate a bit more traditionally...a good meal and cake.

We celebrate Naomi's birth and our first anniversary in Nigeria. Oh, what a day!


SIDE NOTE: Still no internet at our house (thus, no photos), but we hope that we will get it soon. The girls aren't allowed to email via the school computers, so please be patient if you are waiting to hear from them.


PRAYERS: Please pray for our new students this year. We have many students who are living in the hostel, away from parents for the first time. Please pray for quick adjustment and for wisdom and energy as we help them through these transitions.
