Happy 4th of July! Luke's 1st as a U.S. citizen

There's nothing like leaving the comforts and safety of familiarity to remind you of your blessings.  To say we were grateful to be back in the USA a little more than 8 months ago when we returned home from China, would be a complete understatement.  The country had a unique culture, beautiful people, and breathtaking landscapes in some places, but not the freedom I so appreciate in our  country... freedom to worship the One true God and to freely share Him with others. It's a privilege, and calling, I never want to take for granted.  


Today was so special for us- Luke's first 4th of July as a United States citizen.

Before the fireworks show...


Praise Be to God that our sweet baby boy has the opportunity to live in a country where he can freely learn about and share Christ with others.  We pray he, and our girls, will one day speak boldly of our Heavenly Father!
