He is currently teaching through the book of Revelation at our small group Bible study, and asks for your prayers.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Naya has transitioned from ballet classes to taking gymnastics lessons! This wasn&#8217;t necessarily her wish, but since her participation in the &#8216;spring&#8217; (mid-June) recital was not an option time-wise, we felt it best to give her an activity that she can be fully involved in.<\/p>\n<p>Jocellyn continues to be her usual bundle of cuteness. She loves emulating her big sister- dance moves, activities.. oh, and she accidentally went sledding down the hill in front of our house by herself (not into a street, no worries!) yesterday&#8230; after Naya sledded down and landed in the firepit.
