Homecoming...

Bryan's mom has finally returned home from a month in Europe! Actually, she was only back for a few days before she and John were off again on an Alaskan cruise! Phew! We went over to visit on Friday night and were also able to start looking at her beautiful pictures! (I really don't think we even got through half of them!) It was a lovely visit. We really missed her while she was gone! And, of course, she brought home some nice gifts! She gave the boys (all three of them) matching red "England" soccer jerseys! They are awesome! I told Bryan last night, as he was throwing his in the hamper, that I don't know how to wash it because the care instructions are in British! Ha! One of the things Linda got for me is a coaster with the meaning of my name on it. I just have to share it... Andrea From the Latin meaning "womanly". She is steadfast and confident, honest and reliable. A tower of strength to those she cares for and a rock to the family! I'll take it! P.S. As I was sitting here about to publish this post, Bryan walked in with a gift from the worship team! We were both moved to tears upon opening it! Thank you all so much for your thoughtfulness and generosity in our time of need, and for allowing God to use you to be a blessing! It is awesome to see Him work in our lives, amidst the storm, and answer our prayers! God bless you all!
