Pigeons, Parks, and The Pleasures of God

Whew! What a race it's been readjusting to life in the mini-Apple. Benaiah's been to the park everyday, except when it rains, and it turning it into his home turf. Today was the first day though that he noticed his park has pigeons and squirrels. What a realization that was! He would get all excited and run after the little animals who were not too disturbed by this tiny person. We have no idea what we're going to do when winter hits :-)

Rachel's summer work schedule is almost over, then we'll start to get into a groove for the fall. It's been good for us to just enjoy a few weeks together as a family after the summer apart. Sharing memories of our experiences together. Dreaming for the fall and beyond together. Playing with all our super-cool toys together. And just generally being together.

We're grateful to God for these simple blessings. Thank you for your prayers as we prepare to transition into the fall.
