A gift beyond measure

Psalm 127:3 says "Children are a gift from the Lord". I would add "and grandchildren are an extra special gift"! Most of my blog entries are about my life and ministry in Mexico but I can't resist the temptation to write this entry about something that happened last week in the United States.

Audrey Elizabeth was born on Saturday, February 6 to my son and daughter-in-law, Craig and Megan. She weighed 8 pounds 3 ounces and is 20 inches long.

Another gift is the gift of modern technology. By using SKYPE I could see Audrey when she was just a few hours old. I was excited but she wasn't since she slept through the entire call.

So...if you have children or grandchildren, take a moment to thank God for these priceless gifts.
