cute girls ready for church

life is busy

However, I will share this quick story. ...

a friend of mine was holding JoAnne during the 3rd hour of church so that I could play the piano in primary. She passed Dave in the halls and asked him if he knew where her binkie was. He looked at my friend and at the baby and wondered to himself "Why the heck is this lady asking me for a binkie for her baby? How am I supposed to know where she has put her binkie?"

And now I ask, How crazy is it that my husband doesn't even recognize his own child? Not to mention a couple of important details about this friend of mine #1. her youngest child is almost 4. #2. her children are all have a much darker shade of skin than mine ever could.

Grandma JoAnne and Baby JoAnne

We are so happy to have Dave's grandma JoAnne Gonda here with us this weekend. She is a wonderful grandma and we love her! It is so special to have the two JoAnnes together at last!

here is a little preview shot of the baby blessing tomorrow. Jo is wearing the dress I was blessed in.


this baby hasn't missed many meals, eh?
