| We're excited that Seth is eating like a trencherman, as evidenced by this picture! Thank you for praying; we praise God for what He's done! Seth has gained about a pound since I first posted a couple weeks ago. Turns out he LOVES chicken on the bone! All the kids do. Too bad it's not cheap like rice and beans. ;) |

The kids after church last Sunday. I love how Marcie (with Aunt Natalie's beautiful handmade headband) is checking on Seth. Always the little mother, that Marcie. She and Gracie were sitting together on the couch today reading books (and wearing the same dress as in this picture, incidentally - they are VERY insistent on wearing "pretty clothes" every day now). Gracie started humming/singing, and Marcie started imitating her, tone for tone. That made Gracie laugh, so she kept singing and Marcie kept mimicking her, which made both of them laugh and was very sweet to watch. I missed the photo op, however, because I was changing Will's diaper.
Speaking of which, Will was the "exciting" 3 a.m. illness (and 10 p.m., and 10:30 p.m., and 11:00 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. and 12:00 a.m. and 12:30 a.m. and 1:00 a.m. and 1:30 a.m. and 2:00 a.m. and 2:30 a.m. and finally 6 a.m. illness). That poor child kept throwing up even when there was nothing left to throw up. It reminded me of poor Gavin's experience during our medevac last month due to the piece of meat stuck in his esophagus. :( Miserable. So please pray no one else gets it, especially since Gavin is now gone until tomorrow late afternoon/evening. He's flying Bible translators around, so that's exciting for him! I'm always happy when he can do what he loves. I just hope and pray I don't have a night like last night. Too "exciting" (and exhausting) for my taste! :)

| Marcie, Will, Gracie. These kids have definitely learned how to pose, haven't they?? Will was obviously feeling fine when this picture was taken. |

| Gracie wearing her traveling harness/backpack. The kids are really into them again right now. She's wearing it again as I type this, sitting on my lap. |
YES! Way to go Seth man on gaining that pound! WooHoo! One would think you could raise chickens there like crazy! Lots of eggs and if they don't produce....in the pot (can you tell I grew up on a farm)! LOL.... I will give some extra "knee" time for Will this evening...hoping by this post he is doing much better and you get/had some much needed sleep! Seems now that you are back in PNG I'm praying on a "lag" due to the time/day difference! Beautiful children...and that Grace always has that wide smile on her face.....love these kids! Prayers continue...
ReplyDeleteI can't believe they are growing up so quickly, even more than before....they are such " Little People" ...So So cute !!!! So Glad about Seth gaining weight...he's a fighter he can do it!!! Except for the "night time moments"....They must be so much fun..I love hearing about how they are playing together and "Little Mama " Marcie....I love that you are still blogging , with how busy you are... I still follow all the time...
ReplyDeleteand praying for you all...Love and Prayers from Dayton Ohio!
Thank you so much, sweet ladies! Actually, there isn't much lag time at all. I only posted this a few hours ago. I just gave Will some Children's Tylenol because he continues to have a low-grade fever, as does Gracie. None of the kids are very perky right now. I'm not either, but a long nap (and Gavin letting me sleep in past 10 a.m. before he left!) have made a world of difference in how I expected to feel after a night like last night! Love and gratitude to you! Carrie
