\"Kayleigh<\/a><\/p>\n

Announcing…<\/p>\n

Kayleigh Joy Hendrix<\/span><\/p>\n

…our newest granddaughter!<\/p>\n

Our daughter Cher, her husband Dan and their family have been praying for many years about adopting, and during our reunion at Christmas, they got the call that they could come and get Kayleigh Joy (their name for her)!<\/p>\n

Leaving their three kids with us, Dan and Cher flew to Arizona to hold Kayleigh for the first time. A week later, Leah flew down to Houston with the kids to meet up with them, after which they drove to their home in Corpus Christi where Dan is stationed.
\n\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Kayleigh was born on November 16th, 2007. She is adjusting well to her new family, and they to her. It was a precious gift for Leah that they flew her down to be with them for a couple of weeks. Please pray for Kayleigh’s pending paperwork, that it would all go through in this next month.

\n\"Gary<\/a> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Right before Christmas, Leah’s brother Gary and his family came for a quick visit from Australia. We had such a lovely time with them.<\/span><\/p>\n

A few days later, our family gathered for a wonderful reunion with our kids and grandkids; everyone was able to be at Still Waters except for Max, Zuly, and Naomi, who live in Peru.<\/p>\n

Our reunion was everything we had hoped for! Dan and Kiki Jongewaard came from Iowa, and Dan and Cher and family from Texas. Shaun, Mel, and Deryk and Ivy and their\u00a0kids are here in Durham already. \"Eric<\/a> We had so much fun talking, eating, and not doing all that much! It was the first time some of them had met each other’s spouses and children.<\/p>\n

Here at Still Waters, Peter has been busy with a long work-list. Thanks to special gifts, we have been able to hire both Shaun, who is on home leave from Paraguay, and Deryk, who is in missions training, to help with the load.<\/p>\n

\"John<\/a> You’ll be glad to hear that the doors are installed, the firewood in, and the last coats of varnish are going on the hardwood floor. We also finished\u00a0insulating the garage ceiling (and thus, the loft floor). The loft passed inspection right before Christmas, so\u00a0we’re really on the home stretch.<\/p>\n

We are always encouraged by you, and love to hear from you. Thank you for giving, praying, and caring for our family.<\/p>\n

Have a wonderful new year!<\/p>\n
