Big Helper

Lily set the table ALL BY HERSELF this morning!

She was "momma's big heppa!" --Her words

We were all very proud of her for not only getting the dishware to the table safely, but in relative order!

The New Year is coming quickly...

"What shall I render to the Lord for all his benefits to me? I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the Lord." Psalm 116:12-13

...and we'd like to pause and remember a few of the Lord's Blessings to us this year!

-Weyland continues to prosper at his job at Verizon Wireless.

-Because of this, I am blessed to be a stay-at-home mom!

-Lily continues to grow in health, knowledge and skill. We do not take this for granted.

-We are thankful to be back in an adoption process, Lord willing we will have Leach member #4 next year, 2010!

-We are thankful for Cal & Christina's Wedding....We love having Christina in the family..Good pick, Cal :-)

-We are thankful that Haddon & Karlyn are becoming established at their new church position.

-We are thankful the we'll be aunt & uncle again next year upon the birth of Haddon & Karlyn's 2nd baby in June!

-We look forward to Allsion & Peter's wedding in June...and we are excited to welcome Peter into the Leach Family!

-We are thankful to be a family...We love each other...and we love serving the Lord together!

-We are thankful that we are Christ's, and we can never be separated from Him.
