Thankful for Books

On Thanksgiving, Canaan was thankful for...books. Here are a few pictures of Canaan in the past few days, enjoying his favorite activity: reading. In one picture, he is kissing his book, right after reading it. His favorite book at the moment is his train book (featured in the picture of David reading to him). He loves trucks, with trains as a close second. He calls any vehicle with wheels a truck, and they all say 'choo choo.' Silly boy. Anyway, his train book has a picture of a train carrying a truck. He loves that page, as well as the one with the tractor in the corner of it and the apple (a new word). He has had it read to him so much, he knows gets really excited when the next page has a truck on it: he knows it is coming up!

We always appreciate your comments and thank you for the kind words you left. You and Dougle are not only encouraging to us, but inspiring; you are walking the talk. Thank you.

It would be awesome if we could come and visit Moscow. I don't really see that working out, but Abraham hoped against hope, so I will too.

Thanks for your kind and encouraging comments. I have been loving the blog-thing too. It's so neat to be able to link from place to place and find connections to friends all over the world. It is encouraging to see other young women raising babies, loving their husbands, serving the church, and keeping their home. It helps me feel connected (no babies for me yet) to others who want to live their lives God's way. Thanks for sharing your life (and Canaan's) through your blog. I've got a link to it on my blog, and I'll be checking in periodically.
God bless you.
I hope your holiday season is special!
Love, Andrea
