A Father's Day for the Ages-- part 1

Today we had an incredible father's day. It started in the morning, when the kids brought out banana bread and homemade chocolate chip cookies that they helped Mommy make.

It continued at Pastor Samuel's church, where we had an amazing celebration with some fun surprises. We then moved to our friend's house, where we feasted on good Kenyan good and had a party to celebrate the miracle that happened over the past two months.

Sorry we have not blogged much this week. It isn't that there has not been much going on- in fact, it is exactly the opposite. So, we will plan to put some pics out there tomorrow.

Happy Father's Day to my Dad, and to the all the other Dads out there. To the other "future" Kenyan fathers-- can't wait to celebrate with you this time next year.

It is amazing how exciting your first Father's Day is.

Hi Smiths --
I just wanted to say congratulations! Although I usually get the weekly update in church, and I pray for you often, I just finished wiping the tears from my eyes as I caught up on your blog entries. I can't WAIT to meet the two new additions to your family! We will continue to pray as you make your way back to the states!
