Here are just a few of the ways my parents served us.
1) My mom cared for the kids when they got up so Kempton & I could sleep in!
2) My dad played with the kids nearly ALL day which gave us many breaks!
3) My mom enjoys cooking so she cooked the WHOLE Christmas dinner!
4) They stayed with the kids so Kempton & I could go to the Christmas Eve Service together!
5) They know how to care for ALL of Christian's needs without needing explanations!
6) They were in on Kempton's surprise get-away night for me. They cared for the kids again that night and morning!
7) They helped in hanging our new window treatments, installing safety latches on cabinets, and putting up shelves in Carysse’s room.
8) As if this wasn’t enough, they came bearing gifts!
Mom and Dad, you are truly great examples of Phil 2:4! Once again you “outdo us in showing honor” (Rom. 12:10). You are very much appreciated & loved!

I LOVE your parents, just from seeing their pictures and hearing about them. Next time I HAVE to meet them.
Actually, I think I did meet them on another visit. I mean I want to spend some time with them.
How great!! What awesome parents you have. How wonderful to hear what an encouragement and support they were to you. I also loved all the photos you posted. Thanks for giving us a glimpse into your Christmas.
I am so glad you got a break! What a gift! :) I LOVE the pic of Carysse on the little sled thingy SOOOOOOOO cute! I also love seeing her in these pics... like walking around, waking up C, I see more of her personality... I love it! :)
Your parents are AWESOME!! Such great examples of unconditional, totally sacrificial love! Now I see where you get it from. :)
Dad and I count it all joy to be in the presence of such "Lovers of Jesus" and we are doubly blessed that it is your family. It is an honor to serve you as we visit and love on you by sharing all we have. Christian and Carysse are God's gifts to us as grandparents.
Looking forward to our next visit and hoping to spend some time with Noel.
Isn't God so good?! What a blessing! The photo of your mom lovin up on her grand baby makes me ache for my grandbabies so far away!
