It definitely says something about your faith in god for your kids to be such a wonderful example of Christ. As an 18 year old who feels called to be a missionary, your blog is so encouraging! Could you email me sometime? Handmade4032@yahoo.com I would really appreciate to learn a little about what you thought when you first felt called to go to Africa. 😊 I love your story!Heather Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04038506675899431106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2695840511970883220.post-4940403139295799532009-01-26T10:01:00.000-08:002009-01-26T10:01:00.000-08:00I am sitting in my office crying.I am sitting in my office crying.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2695840511970883220.post-84692152102570237962009-01-25T16:46:00.000-08:002009-01-25T16:46:00.000-08:00im weeping. praying. seeking. trusting. alongs...im weeping. praying. seeking. trusting. alongside you sister. loving you, aliAli Tannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03897936047603453804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2695840511970883220.post-62784568505582538782009-01-24T22:49:00.000-08:002009-01-24T22:49:00.000-08:00Sweet Katie,How beautifully you paint the picture ...Sweet Katie,<BR/>How beautifully you paint the picture of the "welcome home!"

I picture your kids raiding your car and my Lord, those precious children that God led you to by the hand of your daughter. It reminds me of the video I have posted on my blog. It just breaks everyone's heart to watch but you are actually living it. You are renewed in your strength and God will use that right now. You are awesome. Enjoy this time with your kiddos. We will be praying.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14338356511622073158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2695840511970883220.post-55671359988832076992009-01-24T20:55:00.000-08:002009-01-24T20:55:00.000-08:00Thanks for your wonderful update.

Elijah said to tell Marvin he will send more toys w/ the Mayernick's and if he has any thing he really wants to let him know and he will get it ... Jeremiah said he misses you being here and Scott said "Keep on Keepin On" .. Maggie just says your name over and over when we pray ... hee hee ...Gwen Oatsvall https://www.blogger.com/profile/16798625543512689427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2695840511970883220.post-52536699584729424792009-01-24T18:37:00.000-08:002009-01-24T18:37:00.000-08:00oh sister i am overwhelmed w/ tears of joy because...oh sister i am overwhelmed w/ tears of joy because now that i know each sweet face in your family i pictured all your daughters doing their part to love on these new precious children ... i saw them in my head pouncing on you as you arrived home by taxi and i can actually hear their voices as they say "mommy i love you." <BR/><BR/>what a treasure they each are and i am beyond thankful to know you and now them ... please tell them i love them all ... i love the new 7 and all 202 ... they are REAL to me ... <BR/><BR/>i know Jesus is so proud of your claiming these angels of His ...
