Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? . . . No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
~Romans 8:35, 38-39

Issaqueena

Josiah has been begging for a pet for the past year. Most of the time he has asked for a dog, but there have been many other requests. Some of the best ones that we can remember are skunk, parrot, squirrel, panda (which would eat the bamboo out back), aardvark, giraffe, baboon, and cheetah. So, we finally gave in and took him to the pet store this past Friday. He picked out a hamster. On the way out of the store he asked for suggestions for names and Chris suggested Issaqueena. Josiah liked the name. The name comes from a Cherokee legend. But of course Chris knows the name from an annual bike ride, Issaqueena's Last Ride. Here are some pics of Josiah and Issaqueena.

Thanks for th link. I enjoyed the pic's and the article on transethnic adoption.

Communication has come a long way since your Granny and I used to exchange letters once per week when you were a young girl. I'd write my letter on the weekend and mail it on Monday. Granny would write during the middle of the week, usually after receiving my letter mailed on Monday. Granny and I saved many of those letters and I have them now.
