"The art of living lies in a fine mingling of letting go and holding on."
~Havelock Ellis
We've been soaking up the joy of having so much snow, and we're enjoying cozy days at home, thankful for God's provision of heat and good food and many answered prayers.
And we are thrilled to announce the courtship of our dear Ink and his lovely girl, Allie. Such an exciting season of life this is for them and for us, and we are deeply grateful to the Lord for this amazing gift.
So much living going on here. So many seasons of life intertwined. It makes me all the more thankful that God is good, and God is great.
Love this. It is always encouraging to see how God bless his children.

Thank you, dear Becky! I love YOU!
DeleteYou light up my day with your beautiful bright family photos. That surprised look from the smallest child :-) I've never seen such flat plains. Great with the sun above. What is God's creation beautiful and varied by region and country. God bless your whole family!
ReplyDeleteOh, Jedidja, thank you so much!! I'm so blessed by your words! Christ's richest blessings upon you, too!
DeleteThanks for sharing these lovely pics.
ReplyDeleteThank you, dear Persis. It's always a gift whenever you visit here!
DeleteI am watching new seasons happen in my family too. They are wonderful, but it's also hard to see the change. Please give my many congratulations to Corey! I am so very happy for him and for you all. ^_^
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, the changes don't come without a lot of growing pains, for sure, my dear! Praise God His grace provides comfort for this, too. {{{HUGS}}} And, I will happily pass on your congrats to Corey. Thank you for rejoicing with us. It means so much!!
DeleteMuch much to be so thankful for! Love that you shared all these, friend! I miss you and love you!!
ReplyDeleteI love you and miss you, too, my precious friend. MORE.
DeleteBlessings abound!! We are so happy and rejoicing with your family. When we saw the courtship announcement on Facebook, Josh commented saying we would probably have to friend request Allie eventually if we want to keep hearing "Life With Ink" episodes :) Much love to you all from the Dermers!! xx
ReplyDeleteYour rejoicing with us, dear Hollie, is such a gift!! Love you and all of the Dermers!
DeleteI love how I can look at your photos and see the same joy and blessings here in my own home. Elijah is SO precious! And I love those growing little feet....I'm always kissing them.
