28 | December | 2007 | THE RAMOS FAMILY

As of today, (Israel is en route to Taiwan) and Micah is officially wearing clothes for 6 month olds. We weighed him a few days ago and he was 15 lbs. Typically babies should double their birth weight when they are 3 months. However, Micah almost doubled his weight in one month. AND, he was a big baby.
Anyhow, I just wanted to say that God has been so good to us. We’ve been so blessed to have both of our families come up and visit during Thanksgiving and Christmas. They’ve been such a great help with taking care of the boys and it’s just been so much fun! I don’t even want to take naps during the day! (Except for today…somehow I knocked out on the bed after I put Micah down for a nap.) It’s truly been like a super-duper long vacation. So, here’s a big thank you to both sets of parents and our siblings. You have been a blessing to us!
GYC was also a blessing. (Jen, I went!) My mom and I pretty much just chilled in the hotel room. Every time we did venture out to attend a meeting, some sort of disaster seemed to happen. Prime example being when Iman rushed the stage when Israel was preaching opening night. He would have run up on stage were it not for the security lady who had to block him…twice. BUT, the few meetings that we were able to hear live and via the live streaming on the 3ABN website were powerful. I can’t wait to hear the messages when they’re put up on the website. I wasn’t able to attend the last meeting/charge, but Israel was really moved by it. We completely trust that God is going to do something extraordinary with the new E-com. We’re praying for you guys.
Of course it was great to see such a concentration of friends in one place too! The other day, we were reflecting on how blessed our children are to have so many uncles and aunties who love the Lord. If by God’s grace, our children are there, we believe each of you will have played a special part.
Well, I’m going to close here. Tomorrow will be my first time officially attending church after 5 weeks. I’ll need to get a some things ready tonight if I want us to make it in time. My brother, Justin, will be preaching so it’ll be a nice treat. Hope everyone has a happy Sabbath! I know I will.
