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

Isaac update

Thank you all for praying for Isaac.  He hit the ground so hard that there was some concern about his jaw being fractured due to the pain he had on the left side by his ear.  The x-ray showed that everything was as it should be, praise God.  He's got four stitches in the deep laceration on his chin.  He had oral surgery and stitches last week in his mouth.  He got knocked over onto his face at school when playing baseball yesterday.  Then he had the big fall yesterday evening.  He summed it up well, "Dad, this hasn't been a very good week."

He's feeling better today, though not moving his mouth if he can help it or eating much.  Thanks again to all.

Gavin

    "Dad, this hasn't been a very good week." Aspiring to become a master of understatement.

    God bless you, Isaac. As a natural born klutz, I can tell you these things do happen, but I bet you're being very brave, and I'll pray that you'll heal really fast and have no more falls.

    Glad that Isaac's fall isn't as bad as it could have been - though certainly painful, I'm quite sure.

    As for a bad week, tell him that "mama said there would be days like this." You may be too young to remember this song!!

    Love to all

    Bless his heart - he's too young to be having such a 'bad week'! Though I am sure he is loving the TLC. Praying there are no lingering ill effects. NKL

    Praying for Isaac, praising that his jaw is not broken. I AM praying that his pain will let up and that he will hear quickly. He is such a trooper. I love you, Isaac!
