Ordination

Sunday Evening we headed back to church for dinner and an ordination service. Daddy was ordained as an elder.
Praying.


Our church's leadership.

Prayers for our family (not only Daddy's new responsibility) but for our health would be appreciated. Poor little Elsie has thrown up nearly every hour since Sunday night, and Seth still doesn't feel well. Emma and Willa seem fine, just every once in a while they'll feel sickish. Mommy's not feeling great, and Daddy's got a microplasm in his chest which leaves him exhausted. (sorta like pneumonia). I had my sick day yesterday and am doing well today. Did I cover everybody? :-D

Congratulations Mr. Howard. I am certain that your church and congregation will benefit by your erudition and magnanimous character. May this be a change that will only lead you and your family closer to Christ.

Oh Olivia! Sick again... :-( I'm happy that you are feeling better but your little Elsie must be miserable. I wish that we could give you some of our vigor just like giving your van a jump start but regrettably it isn't that easy. I guess the trip was just too taxing on the two younger ones. And not another bout of Pneumonia!! Goodness, you people could write a book about how to live with pneumonia...

Let's see here... two lemons + two limes + two grapefruit + an onion and some garlic (+ some grimaces) = SEVEN HAPPY AND HEALTHY HOWARDS!!!!! YEAH! :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-0 < Look at all of them. See how healthy they are?

See you maybe tonight? I hope so.

Hey, I just noticed that there is a beautiful baby grand in the back there. Very Nice! I'd do special music every week if ours had a baby grand! Have you ever played it yet Olivia?
