Gotchya Day

Four years ago today we were Blessed to have four lovely girls become a part of our family. Wow, four years have gone by fast. The girls have become young women and the younger two can speak very little Ukrainian. The older two can still speak and read and write it but have forgotten some.

Today we all went to have Mexican food for dinner. This has become their favorite food. The meal was great and the time spent sweet. We ate, laughed and enjoyed the day together.

After dinner we spent the rest of the day playing with the horse. We rode laughed and just enjoyed each other.

Our girls are 18,16,14 & 12. They like to be with us, even when their Friends are around. They would just as soon spend time with us as to be any where else. We are so Blessed to have these beautiful girls. We have many Friends who have children their age who would rather be any where than with the family. I am not sure who is Blessed more, them or us,but I know one thing, God has put us together.

Cat ran this week with a hurt hip and still managed to finish in the top 1/4 of the field she ran against. This week coming is the last event and then they start the sectional series. She has done better than anyone would have thought and we are very proud of what she has done.

I am truly a Blessed man. I have a wife who loves me and children who look up to me. I pray I can live up to the challenge God has placed before me.

I pray God leads me in all I do and shows me what I need to do next to be the man they all need to see. I love them dearly and would do anything to help them see the love of Christ.

Thank you Jesus !!
