Congratulations David and Aurora on your new baby boy! The little guy looks just like his father (who happens to be my brother) and is such a little ducky! I guess with 20 days to my due date I can’t help but wonder whether mine will be a boy or a girl, (here is [...]

Anisa has been part of our home here for about 2 years now, and has always been a tremendous help and asset. Well, it looks like its time for her to move and God is calling her on to bigger and better things. Well, at least bigger and better for her. I was [...]

Mom called the [...]

Walk a mile

April 6th, 2007 | By Sara and Vincent living in India | More from Sara and Vincent

I was just sitting today thinking to myself ( ok so it’s my day off and I have some time to think!) about that old saying that was about ‘walking a mile in somebody’s shoes’. I remember the year before last when I had a newborn baby I would sometimes think how much easier [...]

Give and Take

April 2nd, 2007 | By Sara and Vincent living in India | More from Sara and Vincent

Some vacation time

March 20th, 2007 | By Sara and Vincent living in India | More from Sara and Vincent

Vacation this year was exceptional, and a beautiful time of relaxation, bonding, and family time. Someone asked me the other day what the highlight of my vacation was, and I had to admit that it was definitely seeing Kaila having so much fun in the pool and at the beach. I know that [...]
