My new daughter-in-love


For many years, I was the only woman in this family. On trips, the botanical gardens and refurbished homes always lost out to the World War I airplane hangars, and docked submarines. Last December, the scales started to tip when Elsa joined the family, and as of Saturday, Nikki has evened up the score in a beautiful way.

Nikki is a person with an open heart and a cheerful disposition. She is ready to serve at a moments notice, notices intuitively the way people are feeling, and is quick to come alongside the hurting or help those who need it. She rejoices with those who rejoice, and weeps with those who mourn. It has been months since we could even think of our family without her in it!

Welcome to the family, sweet Nikki! May your love for the Lord grow daily and bring you closer and closer to Tim as you run this race side by side. We love you!
