Two very special people came to visit us this weekend, Grandpa Tom and Ms. Elizabeth. We met them while we serving in Irving, TX. Today they are like family. That makes them part of our blessed mess, too.
Tom is our fourth son’s grandpa. He cared for Carl before we got him and has been part of Carl’s life ever since. Tom and Carl have always been close. Carl had a great time! So did the other brothers, by the way. They have adopted Tom, as he has them.
Ms. Elizabeth is like a little sister (or kid, though she tells me she isn’t 19 any more). She fits right in, helps with the boys, and hangs out with us old people.
Family takes many forms. God has blessed us with an abundance of people to call brothers and sisters. It is always a treat to see our family!
One Big Blessed Mess!
