Abigail Marie

Our Abigail. What else do I need to say? Strength, diligence, thoughtfulness, she is a young girl in progress who God is preparing in a special way. I have never met another person who is so eager to help and is so aware of people's needs. At the end of last school year we went out to lunch with our pastor and Abigail did her normal Abbie things, getting napkins for everyone, a high chair for Tom, helping daddy get drinks. Well, Pastor Jim asked me how old she was (three at that time). He said that the servant heart that Abigail has at such a young age will be used in a special way. How wonderful to know this young daughter of mine.

A fun story that I just heard today from my Uncle Tony happened last Sunday at my Grandma McDonald's birthday party. Uncle Tony was in the back room playing with Thomas when Abbie and Bonnie came in with him to play and Abbie looks up at him and says, "I can watch the little kids now." Letting Uncle Tony know that there was another set of dependable eyes in the room. He said he asked her how old she was and choked on her answer of "4"!!!

Here is a picture that Auntie Emilie took of our Abigail.

Abigail is always eager to clean anything and everything. Do you see her feet???

Abigail, looking into the radar screen aboard the Midway.I know if we gave her one of these she would have every friend and foe identified and would probably be driving the aircraft carrier as well!
