Look Mommy a sticker!!


So, it's been a couple days since our last post. Life here has just been rolling along. Father's Day was quite eventful and fun! I had my parents over for Sunday dinner and then I had the whole family over later in the evening for the official Father's Day dinner. I'm so glad that I had bought a new dining room table because we definitely need the extra space. Abby had fun with all the cousins and the fruit kabobs we made were a huge hit. Seth, my nephew, couldn't keep his hands out of them. It was fun to watch. We got my dad a new Hope College sweatshirt. It's a bright orange hoodie. He looks so good! He wanted a new one to wear to the Hope football and basketball games. I think he'll go to quite a few games with my brother Dave. It's a good activity for them to do together.
I also found time to go to the eye doctor for a check up. My eyes are severely nearsighted. They're so nearsighted that my exam could be billed medical which is a blessing because I don't have vision insurance. I've also ordered both new glasses and some contacts. Sometimes life just gets so expensive! Ouch!
This morning we were at the optical center and the man helping us asked Abby which country she was from. He has four adopted children from Bangladesh. Abby's reply was adorable! She looked at him and said, "Jesus". I'm so proud of her! She knows that she was formed by the King. She belongs to him!!
Here's the latest picture of Abby. She's busy working on her coloring and putting stickers all over her book while I write. She just woke up from a nap and is in a much better mood. :)
