Oh, The Eyes of "Grace"



Her name is "Hannah Grace". Hannah means "grace"....thus her name literally means, "Grace, grace!"

You have to love that.

And look at those eyes. We were all doing nothing but hanging out for awhile at my house today, for no reason other than the kids needed to burn off some energy in the yard...and we enjoy one another's company, Kelly and I and kids. We chatted about things joyful and things painful, we talked of life in community, and how we both define the concept of "love" in the body of Christ. We wondered, 'How do others define it? When they say, "Love you"...exactly what is their definition?'


The Biblical standard is indeed high. How do you manifest the faithful love of God in your relationships?




::grunt, wheeze:: Holding her like this is harder than it used to be.
Pastor Tim and Hannah Grace




Big brother David (who rode around the yard this evening, with pastor Tim, on Tim's huge orange riding mower - oh, happy day! David asked him for the keys to it, so he could "turn on the headlights, pweeeeeze!"...pastor Tim had to say no. )
Big sister Lydia (Kelly in the background)


Absolutely, achingly adorable, no??
