A special gift...
This is a family of elephants. It was a gift from some missionaries who stayed with us for a few nights not too long ago. They have been missionaries in West Africa for about 20 years, currently living Guinea. They wanted to give us a gift for opening our home to them... the elephants are hand carved from ebony. She said they fit us perfectly, a dad, mom and a baby elephant. (it also helps we are Bama fans!)
It was a wonderful experience having them in our home. We enjoyed getting to know them in such a short period of time. I wish they could have stayed so much longer! It is amazing the work God has done through them and continues to do. We will never forget them and hope to see them again!

Maybe all the pointing Nathan is doing is imitating an elephant's trunk!
What a beautiful gift from people who have been such a gift in and of themselves.
Thinking of you and praying for you today...
