Dinner- Delicious!

Our dear friend, Terry Vessels, brought us dinner this evening. She said she was bringing baked spaghetti, which we all like. YEH!! Well, she brought more than that. It was a delicious feast. A huge pan of baked spaghetti, a salad with all the fixings (just like Cyndee likes it- she spoiled me), homemade, ground wheat, organic bread , fruit (which was for the salad but the kids wanted it minus the lettuce), and pumpkin dessert. We were spoiled! Thank you SOOO much T for all you did to prepare a VERY special meal for us. I remember a sermon once that stuck with me about giving. One should always give equal or more to what one would do for themselves. If one gives less than what they would want for themselves, then it is worthless. You definitely over did yourself and we are blessed tremendously. We are so thankful that the Lord brought your family into our lives. Can't wait to be bringing you a meal! (soon!!)
Blessings to all the Vessels.

Update for the day:
Neima was back at the dentist today. They fixed her upper right side. She was very sore tonight and just wanted to sit in our lap and be loved. :) Luke is coming out of his shell and starting to push the boundaries a bit. He pretends not to know the language, I think. He is still VERY good! Nadia has been doing great. She is so animated and loving. Oh, my! Too cute! Amelia is doing better and better each day with her tantrums. She has realized her pouty, ugly faces only get her timeout. Yeh, she is learning
Nadia is also learning sign language for more, thankyou, and help. She is very smart.
They have taught us their dinner prayer. One person says and the others echo back. We love this and will bring this in as a tradition.

Things are still going fairly well. We put in 5 days of school (praise the Lord) which was beyond my expectation. Mari'An and Luke want to learn which is very exciting. WE will continue to work on the language until they get that, then start school .
