Petra's Baptism

Petra asked brothers and sisters to stand with her.  What a moment for a mom and dad!  She gave a testimony that she had written the night before with no assistance from anyone which astonished and blessed my heart!

Cordell Gardens - Sunday, May 20, 2012

Anna, Petra, Grandma, Gloria, Buelah Cordell - First time we visited in spring.  This was after the MMC classical concert.  Anna, Gloria and I participated.  We were all completely unenthusiastic the whole time leading up to the opening moment.  But once it started we had a great time!  

June 2, 2012, Grantley's Grad

Here comes Grantley as we all sing Pomp and Circumstance on "Bah."

Grantley gave a speech and played Julie O.

During address by Dustin

Presenting the Diploma " Grantley you have passed the hardest test:  that of consciously choosing to follow the leadership of someone whose voice has been speaking in your ear since birth, who may have been at times unreasonable , who has required independent learning and resposibility of you and at the same time stood in the way of your personal independence, and who is shorter than you by a foot."

"Sabbath Prayer" from Fiddler on the Roof

WASH friends:  Nick, Natalie, Dani, Gr, ____, Susannah, Laura

We had lots of pictures of Grantley inside the house and DVD of by Petra.

Gr - boy, Gr - man!
