Valentine's Day Weekend

This past weekend was a whirl wind weekend of traveling to my hometown of Hamilton to see some of my family that live in the area. It was great to see everyone light-up when they saw Caroline. It was also great to see Caroline light-up when she saw them. She is almost 4 months old now and has a great smile & laugh that she shares with everyone she meets. We got back to Columbia in time for me to go to work & preach Sunday and then the next round of visitors arrived. Everyone wants to see Caroline?! My in-laws drove up from Lamar and spent the afternoon. Our neighbors joked that we needed to install a revolving door on our home for all the visitors we have had since Caroline has been born. When a family lives apart like mine, it is work to stay connected. Luckily automobiles & other technology helps bridge the geographical barriers we face. With one post of a blog, an email, a facebook post, a cell phone call, a web cam phone call , etc., we can all stay in touch regardless of how far apart we are or how little we get to physically see one another. So, with this blog entry I say hello to all our family & friends, we love you all and wish we could bring Caroline to see you - especially those who are currently living in warmer climates! Keep in touch yourselves - we want to see pictures and hear from you.
