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

Clothes update - wow!!!

Thanks to the amazing generosity of friends and people we've never met, and considering the clothes we know are on the way, we no longer need anything for the quints except 5T clothing for the girls, 5T and 6T clothing for the boys, girl shoes in sizes 6-11, and boy shoes in sizes 7-13.  Gavin and I are repeatedly and overwhelmingly humbled by all we've been given and all the ways we've been blessed by so very many of you, not least by your caring so much about our family and praying so fervently for our needs.

Speaking of needs (or rather, lack thereof), Seth has been doing so well on his physical therapy and walking that the therapist is holding off on his little foot braces. She notes that he is self-correcting that funny left-foot-turned-outwards gait. In addition, his last food therapy session is Thursday! There's nothing left for her to work on, he's eating and drinking so much! He's gained 6 ounces, so that's a big praise. Please keep praying he keeps gaining; he still needs it. He should gain about 8 ounces/month.

I need to get to bed and iPhoto isn't showing the most recent photos for me to put on the blog, so forgive me for the lack of pictures here!

    Way to go Seth !!! Will definitely keep praying for him and all of you. My daughter was always underweight, too, but she turned out fine and I know Seth will also. He is such a miracle, they all are little miracles and growing so fast !! They are such lucky babies to have such a wonderful big brother and such amazing parents. God Bless

      Thank you so much, you are too kind! Their big brother IS amazing, though - he took care of David, Marcie and Will this morning, including setting up a little play house for them and a little "amusement park" in our living room. Grace and Seth are still sleeping! He's been eating so well, I'm really not concerned at this point. Praise God!! :) Love, Carrie
