We just got back from saying goodbye to my sister and her wonderful family. They are flying out tomorrow morning (with their 3 children under 3) for their 34 hour trip to Paupa New Guinea where they will be missionaries. We will not see them again for 4 years. The next time we see the kids Kobe will be 7, Kiera will be 5 1/2, and Kaili will be 5. It is so hard to think about all the family gatherings without them there and the fact that I can't pick up the phone whenever I want and talk to my sister. She is a wonderful woman who has given so much of herself to help me- and many others too. I will miss Kobe's little voice and all the little things that make him so unique and I will miss watching the girls grow. Family get togethers without Aaron's sense of humor will be dull- I think I appreciate his jokes more than others:) As hard as it will be I am so glad they are being obedient to God's call. What they are doing is amazing. I do not have a picture of all of them in my computer but here is one of the 2 handsome big boys.
Goodbye...You are loved and prayed for...

What a great picture of the boys. That was such a beautiful not you wrote. Once again I shed tears. To think that these are the same girls who fought so growing up!Yes Stacy is a wonderful woman but so are you! This is a hard time for us all but I know God will teach us much about depending on Him through all the years. Love Mom
