....Jessica playing with Valeria

We sponsor a little girl in El Salvador and lately I have been praying for her with the girls. This morning Jessica was carrying around Valeria's picture and talking to her. It made my eyes fill with tears when she looked at the picture and said, "Jesus yufie Balri" For those of you who dont speak Jessica that means Jesus loves you Valeria. I was so over whelmed by her sincerity and kindness to a little girl she has only seen in pictures. I am truly in awe of our heavenly father and how he loving guides our children.

"Jesus said 'Let the little children come to me for the kingdom of God belongs to them'"

...Jessica and her Dog

Not to long ago Samson was intruded into our little family. He has managed to turn our entire life upside-down. But Jessica loves him so very much.  I think he might just turn out to be worth all of the extra work. =)

Fun in the snow
