Yes, Marcie came home today! She's doing well after a few hours at home and hopefully can teach David some lessons on calming down and sleeping in the evening. I'm exhausted so I'm heading to bed ASAP, but here are a couple pictures. Will, Grace, and Seth are doing well.
This is the blog for Gavin and Carrie Jones and family. We live in Papua New Guinea and are working to see lives transformed by the living Word of God through Bible translation. Gavin is a helicopter pilot. Carrie, who has her degree in Public Health, works in the lab at our busy rural clinic. Our son, Isaac, was born in 2004 and our quintuplets, Will, David, Marcie, Seth, and Grace, were born in 2012.
Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. The you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. Trust in the Lord with all you heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight. -Proverbs 3:3-6

ReplyDeleteThese pictures made me so happy, Carrie and Gavin and Isaac! It is so good to see Marcie out of the hospital and that the Lord has allowed another one of your precious children to come home. Isn't that neat how He is giving you one at a time, to give you more time to adjust to each? I will pray the others come home soon, too. I am sure Isaac is a really good big brother; please tell him I miss him. Continuing to pray for you and praising God for little Marcie!
ReplyDeleteSo happy to hear this news!! One by one! Praise the Lord for "breaking you in slowly" to having 5 newborns at home. Glad you have help. Wish the south Pacific was closer to Dallas. Praying often each day.
