Thank you Holly for your prayer!

Blest Be the Tie That Binds

---

 Blest be the tie that binds 
 our hearts in Christian love; 
 the fellowship of kindred minds 
 is like to that above. 
 
 Before our Father's throne 
 we pour our ardent prayers; 
 our fears, our hopes, our aims are one, 
 our comforts and our cares. 

 We share each other's woes, 
 our mutual burdens bear; 
 and often for each other flows 
 the sympathizing tear. 

 When we asunder part, 
 it gives us inward pain; 
 but we shall still be joined in heart, 
 and hope to meet again.

My babies can read!

And ride a "two-wheeler" (ie a bike with no training wheels). They taught themselves to ride a few weeks ago, but they blew me away yesterday when they started reading after we bought them some Bob books in a garage sale. They have read 3 books so far and can't wait to try number 4 tomorrow!
