taught, practiced with the kids, and then led the kids in singing 3 Christmas songs. One was "Happy Birthday,
Jesus."
Jesus helped me to write a second verse for it in Spanish.~

What a beautiful family pic of ya'll. can't believe how much everyone of the kids have grown. =)
I loved fried bread, so those treats that Edgar and Joanna made, made me hungry! =) Blessings. Nice to get to talk briefly yesterday. Slowly getting around today, and it's snowing in Cinci, so we have smiles!
I love you, Laura and Family
Back home after some wonderful days of Christmas with the Hausmans. While I was sorry that they could not go be with the Sr. Hausmans we were glad that we did not have to be home alone. Came back home in a Indiana blizzard, even in a near accident God helped us arrive home safely. Your family made a "Christmas Card picture". I was so sad that Elijah was hurting so but glad that he soon got relief and could enjoy the day. The boys looked so cute in their red check shirts and bow ties. The girls looked like beauty queens in their frills and curls and the Daddy and Moma . . . well they too looked festive! Loved your pretty breakfast table. Love, Moma
These last 3 posts are so sweet, Heather. How adorable that Mary noticed and loved the beautiful changed pink and purple Christmas tree. I think that tree is beautiful too! Yes, what a wonder it is that Jesus is our King, defender, and friend. I cannot imagine the hopelessness of living without him. I liked what your Christmas activities included; devotions, being together, and doing a puzzle. Did any of it get put together, what with 1,500 pieces? I like the new Christmas picture at the top of your blog because you each look very happy. Also, the pictures of your family on Christmas Sunday turned out awesome. You genuinely look like you are ready for Christmas festivities! What nice family pictures those are! I believe I could be happy with one of those! Smile. It's so nice of you all to give of your best to the Master for the people in Colombia. What precious people they are! It touches my heart to see how they respond to your inspiration by giving of their best, also.
What a wonderful season of Christmas this has been! I have felt the blessing of the Lord and he addeth no sorrow with it. I am praying that Phillip's memory stick will soon be returned. With love for each of you dear family, Mom and Dad D
