they have decided…

to follow Jesus! And to let everybody know.

I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth. (3 John 4)

Thank you, friends, for sharing in our joy! And thank you, Jesus, for your death and resurrection! We love you!

We celebrated with Grandma and Grandpa Yoder at Pei Wei, then went to the zoo (with 8 million other Ohioans) to see our new polar bears, then stopped at Wal-Greens for more Silly Bandz, then to Starbucks Happy Hour to split two Caramel Frappuccinos at 1/2 price, then riding bikes and playing with the neighbor kids, then to Life Group, then Little Caesar’s at 8:30 pm and bed.

The day was practically perfect in every way.

So thankful for my family, our pastor, our friends at church, our Life Group, Jesus and all of you!

Have a wonderful Monday!
