Pictures and more

It's been awhile since I've posted anything so I just wanted to say that I'm still here too! (Davey's been doing all the posting lately).
Things are busy, as one would expect with the situation. Clearing a household of 6 people who have lived here for the last almost 8 years is no small task!! It still hasn't sunk in completely that we are leaving here in just a few months, God is still preparing my heart for the 'goodbye'. I know that it won't be easy, but I also know that it is the best thing for everyone involved because it is obedience to God.
It is an exciting time as well. There is a German saying that is very fitting for the emotions involved... 'wir gehen mit ein weinende Auge' (at least I think that's right, spelling is most likely wrong ;) ), at any rate it means 'we are going with one crying (or tearing) eye'. It is a bittersweet time. I am looking forward to what God has in store for our Phamily, as well as the fellowship here in Freiburg...it really is exciting to walk with God!!
I also wanted to post a few pictures of the Phamily from the last few weeks. Dariah has gotten so big already, I can't believe how fast time flies! And Zachy has also 'grown up' alot in the past couple of months, he is such a 'big' boy now. It is such a blessing to see how they all love one another, and care for one another. Of course they fight, (they are siblings, what else can we expect!), but they also truly care for one another and it is so sweet! Jesaiah is a very loving big brother and Taliah is a little momma hen who loves to help and especially with her little sister. So here are a few pictures from our, sometimes chaotic, always loud crew!



The ones of Dariah with the blue lips is from her chewing on a paper from the Crayola color wonder set the kids have. The pages are black and you use a special pen to color on them, but apparently slober works just as well! And she learned early that if you want something from the kichen counter, like cookies for example, just push a chair there and help yourself! She is a climber let me tell you!
