Jojo Day!!

Four years ago, on April 28th, we were in Ethiopia picking up our baby boy. We celebrate this day every year and we call it Jojo Day. Last weekend we celebrated Jojo Day and it was a lot of fun! The first Jojo Day was a lot of fun too, but these kids just keep getting more and more fun! I can't believe we've had our fourth Jojo Day. I look forward to many more Jojo Day celebrations!

This boy is such a blessing in our family! Tim and I agree that we couldn't have picked a better one...God's choice of putting Joseph into our family is best! I love so many things about him. I love that he is so outgoing, happy, caring, silly, energetic, and downright cute!

School with Jojo

Between traveling, back pain, out of town visitors, and sickness I haven't taught the preschool group for a while. So, it's just been Joseph and me doing school.

It's been such a sweet time that makes me look forward to officially starting homeschool this fall!

So, I'm including some of the random, fun pictures that I took this week. I hope you enjoy them! I sure enjoy these kids.

Friday School

When we are in the States we go to church on Sundays and the kids go to Sunday School. Here in the Middle East we have church on Fridays. The kids have a lesson and some play time while the parents have prayer time and a Bible study.

These kids are really close in age and they have a lot of fun together! We tried to have some play time outside before it got hot...the kids liked that! We even got a picture of the kids all together before they started playing!!
