Showers of Blessings!

Friday night the Kids 4 Truth Ladies and a few others celebrated the arrival of Erika Elizabeth Gillen to the Gillen home. What a fun and relaxing time to celebrate with these ladies. We enjoyed dinner, fellowship, and giving Julie and Erika gifts to celebrate her arrival.

The living room was full with the following ladies: Julie, Erika, Adele Roberts, Arlene Jones, Debbie Gillen, Grace Gillen, Addy Forrest, Leah Forrest, Jill Hawkins, Grace Hawkins, Susan Wilson, Glenda Howerton, Amy Campa, Arrena Ralph, and myself. My boys couldn't contain themselves and Peter and Andrew came in to join and watch several times! They were so excited to see Erika in person. We tried to include Joy via telephone, but alas, it didn't work...Joy...we missed you!

It is exciting to celebrate the adoption of Erika. As we reflect on God's Goodness to give Erika to the Gillens it causes us to reflect and remember His Goodness in adopting us as His Children and into the Family of God! Praise the Lord for His saving Grace.
