Saturday evening, January 24

It was just a week ago – when Reuben and Judi were still here with their two little ones. They wanted to take us out for supper as a thank you gift for allowing them to stay here while they waited for the legal paperwork to be able to take little man home.

We chose Lititz Family Cupboard, and as we got out of our car I heard Judy exclaim in surprise at seeing someone she knew. Since they live in the Midwest, I thought it must be someone from the church they attend when they are here.

Imagine my surprise when I learned it was Lois (left) the lady who coordinated little man’s adoption – and they live half-an-hour away!

We asked the waitress if we could all sit together. There were 5 of them and 5 of us – plus the baby.

We had a most delightful evening, and it was a special treat for Lois to see Reuben, Judi, and their little ones before they went home. (Cerwin took these pictures with his cell phone.)

I love how God makes this kind of thing happen now and then – affirming His love and care for us.
