Ready to Receive!

Last night, Ty and Wil received communion for the first time at the Holy Thursday Service at Hopewell Reformed Church. It was a wonderful experience with our beloved Pastors guiding us and telling the story of the last supper. The evening was made all the more special by the fact that Ty and Wil's cousins — Connor, Taylor and Paige — traveled all the way from North Carolina to share in the celebration.

Friendship Starts Here

Wil set up a lookout tower from his bedroom window 45 minutes before Jordan’s family arrived to pick him up.  Jordan is Wil's best buddy and the kind of friend — that as a parent — I hope he has for a lifetime.  A few weekends ago, Wil and Jordan were finally granted their first sleepover. Jordan’s mom and dad hosted the evening and ensured that the boys had everything to make this modern ritual of childhood all it could be. From ice cream with sprinkles to a pillow fight to a midnight movie — Wil and Jordan were treated to a night to remember.  

I love this tiny twosome and wish them years of friendship!
