Now that the school year is finally starting to wind down, Darren and I begin a busy summer of planning deputations. Darren will begin his deputation this coming weekend at Temple Baptist Church in Little Rock, AR for the morning service and then Lynchview Baptist Church in North Little Rock, AR for the evening service. It will be nice to go "home" for the weekend and stay in the beautiful state of Arkansas.
We will be leaving Saturday morning to start our family vacation at Hot Springs Village with Todd Cox and his family. Darren and Todd decided that while we will be in Arkansas, they needed to plan to speak to churches. Please continue to keep us in your prayers as we speak at churches to raise support for The Refuge. This will be a busy summer and Fall 2011 will be here before you know it and Refuge will begin its ministry.

God Continues to Bless Us
The Lord tells us in Jeremiah 29:11 that "He knows the plans for us." He hasn't failed us yet. In December 2010, I completed my Master's degree in Secondary Education. It was a long and hard 3 years, but it was well worth it. The Lord continued to show us His will by revealing to Darren a calling. Darren felt called by the Lord to plant a church in the Talty/Terrell area and was confirmed when the Lord brought Todd Cox into his life. Todd and Darren both felt called to plant and church in the same area. To make a very long story short, we went through an almost 2 hour interview in December and then went through an assessment weekend by the BMAA Mission Directors in Little Rock, Arkansas. Darren and I were approved by the BMAA to be North American Missionaries to Kaufman County, Texas in April 2011.

Teeth and Mama
Daylen is 8 months old now and he has started sprouting another tooth this week. His first one came in at the end of his 7 months and now his second is coming in at the end of his 8 months. This week has also been a big week for him because he has started saying, "Mama." His first words were "dada" and he started doing that at about 6 months. It was such an awesome experience to hear him say, "mama." I am thankful that I was home to hear it instead of at work. I am hoping he does all his milestones this summer while I am home rather than when I am at work, of course, this would mean that he would have to grow up too fast.

Daylen's 7 Month Portraits
Daylen had his 7 month pictures taken today at Kiddie Kandids in Babies R Us (Mesquite). These are also late Father's Day portraits. The supervisor/photographer who took the pictures did an awesome job!! She liked their portraits so much that she ordered a 20 x 20 of them to hang in their studio as an advertisement. So in about a month go to the Mesquite Babies R Us and you should see Darren and Daylen's pictures hanging up.

Daylen's First Tooth
Daylen is finally starting to "sprout" a tooth on the bottom left side. He has been fussy this week and then we discovered why. His bottom tooth has started breaking through the skin where we can feel the top of it. He is at the end of his 7th month, so by the time he is 8 months old (7/3/10) he should have a tooth showing. Here is a picture I took of his tooth. The picture looks awful, but I had to take the picture while he was crying so his mouth would open wide.
