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

Great flight!!

Thanks so much for praying! Seth and Gracie did just wonderfully. What was really fun was that a couple with boy/girl twins almost our babies same age got on the plane just ahead of us and sat in the row directly in front of us. I think everyone in our section thought, "OH NO, what is this flight going to be like??!!" Their babies and ours did just fabulous! Seth slept almost the whole flight and breathed deeply and quietly and slowly, completely at peace. Gracie didn't sleep much, but she was mostly content and very talkative. It was really cute. The other little girl twin also talked a lot. She's tiny like Gracie is, and the boy is chubbier like Seth. Funny all the parallels! Funny also to be parents of "twins" for a while. Isaac, as always, was a wonderful help. The people who sat around us complimented both sets of parents on how well the babies did. :)

Happy Seth after a 2.5 hour nap! (He looks like the spitting image of my brother and me as babies in this picture!)

Seth trying to touch the Sierras. We were right over Shaver Lake where we plan to go in a few days!

Marmi and two of her six babies. The quints have a cousin about their age, too.
