New Glasses

This is a big day in the Reed family. Our daughter Moriah, now 4 years old, just got glasses today. She doesn't have a very strong prescription and it may eventually correct itself. She's about 20/40 with a slight astigmatism. Our ophthalmologist said that without the astigmatism, she might well do without. But here we are.

We tried to get some that are stylish and near pink--her favorite.

I don't know where this idea comes from, but when she first came over and showed me her new glasses I told her that she looks pretty and cute in them. "No", she said, "I look smart." We certainly didn't plant that idea.

Anyway, I'd say she looks good and smart!

Recent Pictures

Here are a few pictures from life recently. Gabriel's catch v. my catch and Moriah's missing tooth which apparently is terribly traumatic. She's very upset about the prospect of losing her other front tooth (which is about to happen)

Pictures of Shorewood, IL

Here are a few of the pictures that I took on a recent trip to Shorewood, IL where God has led my family to plant a church called The Pursuit.

Please be praying for that endeavor as we are planning, dreaming and preparing.
