A simple gesture





We had a sweet visit with our dearest friends for a few hours yesterday. It is so hard living far from them, but our time together is still precious. As we were leaving, Amber gave me a nice big stack of coloring books for the children. This morning I asked them if they wanted to color in their new coloring books and they said, "NEW COLORING BOOKS?? WHERE?" I told them the Sullivans had given them to us and they were in the back of the van. You would have thought I gave them each $100. They spent the next hour coloring in their new books. So, thank you Ms. Amber for a simple gesture that gave me an hour of peace on this beautiful Saturday morning. We love you guys and hope to see you soon.
