I realized today that Amber is officially 3 and a half today! She is such a joy. I think one of her favorite things to do is spend time at VIPS (Visually Impaired Preschool Services). Tonight we are going to VIPS to have a family style dinner with some of the other families and hear a speaker on expanded core curriculum for blind and visually impaired children. Amber and Corban will enjoy playing in the new preschool wing during the speaker’s talk. We came to Louisville for seminary, we had no idea when we came that it was home to one of the best places in the country to raise visually impaired babies and toddlers and that we would need those services. Of course God knew our children before they were born and has a way for working things out good like that! As Chris graduates soon though and is looking for a full time ministry position (he picked up his cap and gown today!) I’m at peace about saying goodbye to VIPS. We will miss them but we have learned a lot from them and I’m confident we can take what we have learned from VIPS and our children will continue to benefit from the things we learned from VIPS even when we live somewhere else. God has provided VIPS to us at the right time and for the right amount of time.
Amen, Abby, Amen ….
