Time Flies When We're Havin' Fun

We're a little late with our April update, but life's just been so darn busy! We enjoyed a wonderful 10 day tour of the Great North with Isaiah in our new minivan (yes, Meredith has stepped out of her Element and joined the ranks of soccer-momhood) from April 9th - 19th. It was a wonderful trip and we loved seeing ya'll! If we didn't see you this time, we're sorry we missed you and are looking forward to planning another trip soon. Of course, the Tucker side of the family taught Isaiah about real health food - oreos, banana cream pie, Flipz crackers, chocolate cake - ya know, the good stuff! He had his first sight of snow, as there was still some on the ground in the U.P., and the Great Lakes, and also enjoyed hanging out at Silver Birch Ranch for a few days. After that, we enjoyed just a short time with some former co-workers of Amos' from Rawhide before heading back to Arkansas. The time was far too brief but the fellowship was sweet nonetheless. To those of you who hosted us: THANK YOU for your wonderful hospitality!

We managed to finish our application for WorldVenture (www.worldventure.com), just before heading north. We were notified about a week ago that our application had been accepted and were invited to WorldVenture's headquarters in Littleton, Coloroado for an official interview. If all goes well with the interview, we will stay in Littleton for two weeks for training and be officially "appointed" as WorldVenture missionaries. It's an exciting and overwhelming process. Please pray that our interview will go well, that we'll both (us & WorldVenture) feel a unity of partnership, and that the Lord will continue to guide us to the place where He wants us. We are still undecided at this point regarding future ministry location. We have a few options that we're seriously praying through and seeking the Lord about. We would really appreciate your prayers!

...and Isaiah? He's wonderful. He's growing and changing so quickly. He crawls faster than we run and he's cruising along the furniture. He'll be walking very soon! He was dedicated in a special portion of our church service on Mother's Day. It was a sweet time to verbally commit to raising Him in the way of the Lord and to pray for his future and salvation. Parenting is truly a journey, but children are such a sweet gift from God.

We hope that May finds you happy, healthy, and well. We love you all!
