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

Momma Marcie and the other kids

Watch this link first, then see below for translation:

Momma Marcie

This is just SO classic of all our kids! I think Will and David keep talking about horses. Marcie is busy playing Mommy. I love the switch between the stern "No, no, come!" and the sweet "Okay?" Her exact words at the beginning are "No, no, Gacie! Hands! No! Hands!" [Hold hands with her.] Will at first says, "No," but then says, "Come on!" He keeps babbling about horses or something and Marcie says, "Hold the hand," then turns around to yell, "Come, David! No, no! Come, Gacie! No, no! Okay?"

In the past couple of days David and Marcie started speaking in complete sentences, not leaving out any words. It's SO fun to hear them converse with each other and Gracie. Seth and Will have lots of words and disjointed sentences, so they can definitely communicate what they want to. Will's latest cuteness includes saying he's big and strong, then listing all the other kids (the ones I tell him it's his job to protect), but listing Mommy and Daddy and Isaac, too. I tried to get it on camera, but he's more interested in seeing the screen of the camera than he is in performing for it.

There will be no real blog post until our normal way of posting pictures comes back online. It's been out for days. Sorry folks! We appreciate your continued love and prayers and are doing well. :)

Gratefully,
Carrie
