In early November, our friends Tracy and Pastor Steve Mitchell visited us for lunch. They approached us about being part of Beaverton Foursquare’s Christmas ministry and Steve described the Christmas theme as “The Hidden Gift,” And he wanted us to share our love story with the church.
Like a favorite movie, we’ve enjoyed sharing how God put us together with friends and family, but sharing it with our whole church body of what seemed like 3,000 people was… God-sized. We had asked God to use us for His purposes, and it was time to take a bigger leap of faith.
Rumor has it that in China it’s special for a baby to reach 100 days old. So in honor of that, I have created a video of Kadence’s 1st month. I wanted to do all three months, but here’s the 1st with more to follow.
There’s a funny section of road by Jennilyn’s parents house in Battle Ground. It’s a big dip in the road unlike any I’ve ever seen. Big enough that the sign preceding it is, quite simply, a lie. It’s not a dip—it’s an acute “V” in the road.
We received the bear outfit from our friends Jake and Linda, and Kadie is now big enough to fit. We arranged her with many of the stuffed animals we’ve received.
