Elijah is One! Can you believe it’s been a year? It truly does seem like yesterday we were in hospital, and yet so much has happened in that last twelve months. We have so much to be thankful…look at our beautiful boy! The woman that helps me with childcare actually lives with us and she is incredible. What would I do without her? They truly love each other and she makes it possible for me to serve in the intense way that I do. He is doing all the normal stuff; walking around walls and furniture–though not yet independently, jabbering, eating tons, cutting teeth, and into everything!
Isaac lost his first tooth, learned to ride a two wheeler, and attended his first camp this month. He is learning to play the guitar and plays coach pitch with dad two days a week. He is funnier every day with a real grown up sense of humor. Helina, is busy with ballet, guitar, and after-school activities. She is working on her literacy skills in Spanish, but loves to read and write in English. She is so tall and beautiful — a treasure to our family.

Hi Reyes Family,
Just wanted you to know that I do stop by here occasionally to see the updates and get a glimpse into all your lives down there. Thanks for sharing about your family, the young girls your helping, your Christmas letter, and all the ways that God is stretching and growing you. We love you and we’re praying for you! ~Keith
