Tennessee Visitors

We had visits from both the Bayne Family and the Spitzack family in June.  The Spitzacks were were on an RV trip during Cole's summer break from grad school touring the west coast; and the Baynes were also on a west coast road trip before planting their new church in Greenville, South Carolina. It was amazing to have our cherished friends from Tennessee in our California home.  My heart was so full!

Hannah's Preschool Graduation

We were so blessed to get the kids into A Kid's Kingdom Preschool.  By the time we found out we'd be moving to Castro Valley, preschool spots in the area had long been filled.  There were waitlists most everywhere and I needed three spots-two of them being in one class.  A Kid's Kingdom had been where Jacob went to preschool and Kris could vouch that they were wonderful. I spoke with the director, Teacher Lilia, who couldn't have been kinder. and she let me know that they didn't have room for all the kids.  She put me on the waiting list and said that plans sometimes change over the summer months and she would be in touch closer to when school started.  She called late in the summer to confirm that space had opened up for all the kids.  Oh, the happy tears I cried!  God is so good!
