Minneapolis

Andy had some business in Minneapolis at the beginning of this month. He goes up there on and off and I usually come along for some time away. This time we decided to bring Leyla since it was her birthday - 5 yr.! We really had a nice time with her. She took full advantage of the hotel pool and had me in there first thing in the morning. We also did some shopping, strolling in the beautiful spring weather, eating, and made a visit to the children's museum.
Breakfast together.
Leyla at the Children's Museum:
Post girl.

Riding on the queen.
In the car out of the blue Leyla said, "Mommy, will Samson still be strong in heaven or will he have his hair cut short?" I answered, "I'm not sure about that, maybe we should ask Daddy or we could wait till we get to heaven." She said "Ohhhh, we better ask Daddy that will be a lot quicker."

We are so thankful for our fiesty little girl. We pray her heart turns to Jesus and she uses her vigor for His work. She is a delight to our family.

Oh, what a sweet conversation with Leyla. I love how honest kids are!

That was probably so special to her, to get away by herself with you. What a great idea!
