Awesome week

Sorry for the absence for a while folks. We've had our niece staying with us all week. She really is fantastic and even though the wife & I are both exhausted, it's brought us closer together. From the outdoors stuff we've done like going to the seaside, to the indoors meals out and in our tiny kitchen, to the grumpy times of being overtired (me as well as my niece!) and putting her to bed after a fantastically fun time together, it's incredible to see a young person grow. She is six years old and already you can see what a beautiful person she is and how much more beauty will appear as she grows. God creates amazing things and showers us with love. We were reading from her children's prayer book last night and it was from John, where the Lord know us each by name. He does and he also knows the journeys we are taking and the road ahead. Growing up happens so fast, but it's a magical kind of fast. Even more so with the Lord in your life. Awesome work Jesus!
