Paul finally got here at 2:00 in the morning. His flight was 8 hours delayed so he landed in Asheville at 11:50 pm and then we had the hour and half drive up to Highlands. It was so wonderful to see him. When Noah woke up this morning, I told him I had a surprise for him and to go and look in my room. He ran in there and found his Papa in bed, he jumped on the bed and gave him kisses and hugs. He was so excited, he ran and told MeMe and Granddaddy there was a special surprise in Mama's room they have to come see. Then he went and got his new special swords to show Papa. It was an eventful morning. Hadassah was full of smiles, laughs and even rolled over for Papa several times.
The morning continued with a special day at Silver Springs - my niece Faith got baptized. She wanted to wait until Uncle Paul came. We worshipped together and prayed blessings over her. After her baptism, the Lord blessed her with a butterfly that landed right on her hand. We were all amazed at the symbolism of new life the Lord was speaking to her in a way that ministered directly to her. My mom also gave her a butterfly journal and plate for her baptism that morning. You could sense the presence of the Lord in a deep way.

So glad you are together at last for your vacation. We're praying for a time of refreshing for you both.
Wow. The L-rd is faithful. I just read in mark about Jesus being immersed by John. It's as if that butterfly is G-d's way of telling Faith, "in you I am well-pleased". So beautiful.
Yay! The fam is together at last! I will pray that this time for you all is rich and full of unexpected blessings. He is good indeed!
As I read I was imagining an excited Noah running around. Made me smile.
