"Momma, Can She Talk Now?"

A cute moment with Poppy.  Here's a picture of her today on a rocking horse we were just given by one of our neighbor friends.  And here's the 'quote of the day' (actually yesterday) from little Miss Poppy after Victoria returned from the hospital with Willow (Poppy thinking in the back of her mind after hearing that we might be a little concerned about Willow's speech and hearing, common side effects from cleft lip/palate), "Momma, can she talk now?"  

I spoke to Austin today on Voice-Over-Internet.  He was calling from Niort, France. The conversation was a little garbled due to an intermittent connection, so we were both a bit frustrated, but I was just satisfied to hear his voice. He's having the time of his life, and loves the scenery throughout France. Tomorrow he's on his way to Barcelona, Spain to see Jack Johnson in concert. He'll hang out there for a few days. After that, he might head to Madrid (he's not entirely sure). Victoria and I also had opportunities to connect with Annie on iChat (love that technology). She's doing well and thoroughly enjoying her time at Mount Hermon. We'll all see her next week when we go down there for vacation. Can't wait! Of course, no word from Barret.  He's "radio-silent" until he gets back into the United States on Saturday. We really miss him.

That's it for today.  

Warmly in Christ,

Tom
