We have a niece!




Today we had an amazing experience. We were able to be at the hospital when Jade Elizabeth Baljet was born - our niece! Our first niece, I might add. Watching Gabe hold Jade was, to be honest, incredible. Holding her myself was incredible as well! Wow. God is so great!

Over the past few months we've had the amazing privilege of holding babies in the church nursery. And guess what? My Superman is not only amazing - he's amazing with babies, too. They love him! And he understands them. We've talked a lot about babies lately. We want some. In God's perfect timing, we will have the incredible privilege of being parents - hopefully within the next 2 years!

So many blessings and challenges have come our way in the past few weeks, we're almost...exhausted. In a good, blessed, happy way. We are burdened for souls, perhaps more than ever, and we are convinced of God's greatness and grace, daily more than the day before.

God is providing for all our needs!!! We found out this weekend we're hired to work the summer in Alaska at Yes Bay Lodge, a fishing lodge in one of the most beautiful locations I have ever been to!

We have a general outline of the next few years. If the Lord decides to change those plans, we won't be upset - but for now, He seems to be leading us in an amazingly exciting direction. Sharing His truth! Proclaiming His gospel! In quiet ways and loud; living every moment for His glory, by His grace.

We are so blessed - and we get to do all of that together!

I still can't believe I'm married to my best friend. Thank you, Lord, for giving me Superman!
