And this is his happy face. I have to tell you how proud I am of my middle child. He paid very close attention to both his older and younger sister, and their choices so that at 23 years of age he is still a virgin. Girlfriend, well according to Tanner, she is just as big a prude as he is. And he is as happy as can be. I don't know if this is the one that God has chosen for Tanner, I am praying that she is, but trusting if not, that God has a plan. Tanner is not a dater. This is probably one of a hand full of girls he has dated, and is only the second serious one. He is a romantic, and she is so in love with her Jesus it just shines out of her. Tanner is my builder missionary. If he can go and build it, he will go just about anywhere. He's not real good in the backyard bible study department, but give him hammer and nails and he is good to go. Together, I think that they would be quite a team, but it's not up to me, it's up to my Father, and placing Tanner's future there can at times be very hard. For now school, work, and being with Girlfriend are large parts of his life, along with his four legged daughter "Whiskey" and yes she too is in love with Girlfriend. So I am trying not to push things, I won't tell them I have been looking at tuxs and such...I am just so glad he has found someone to put that look in his eye.

Oh , how I pray that my Aaron will choose to be a Tanner!!! Having just said goodbye to my teenage daughter/mom to Amiyah this just blesses my heart. Sounds like these two would make quite the couple for Christ!
So glad you are doing the study with us!! I believe God is really up to some changing of some lives!
Blessings,
Lelia

What a precious son. Jesus was a builder too you know! In fact He was a carpenter before He preached...so your son has plenty of time to come around. What a great man you've raised.
Blessings!
