The blessing of family...

Today my sister flew back to Oregon...to resume her busy life as wife, mother of four, social worker, friend. We have been enjoying her company since Saturday. 

My kids got some great Aunt Susan time...baking cookies, playing at the park, reading books. And I enjoyed some good "sister time"...having my laundry folded, meals prepared and dishes done. :o) She was a true blessing.  
 We even got to spend a couple hours in downtown Leavenworth...just the two of us! (Thanks Joshua!)

 Thanks again sister for all your help...for making the trip, for leaving your children to come and help with mine, for loving Jesus with all your heart, for being older. :o) I love you! And thank the Lord for your life...

Come again soon!!!
