A special blessing
Lucas Michael was blessed by N.T. Wright on Sunday! He delivered the sermon at our church and we happened to be on the side of the church where he administered communion. Unfortunately, it all happened so fast that neither Chad or I can remember the blessing he said.
Here's our family. It sounds so funny to say "our family" as well as "our son." This parenting thing is still so surreal!

Is this the same guy who buried Gerald? Rhea
Not the same guy. But it was quite a week at our church to have both the Ford Funeral and a visit from N.T. Wright (one of today's preeminent New Testament scholars).
Great photo! So by now I guess you're used to being called "Mrs. Allen", or Chad's "wife" (It took me several years to adjust to being "Mrs. Faber" and Roger's "wife"!). The same will no doubt eventually happen with calling Lucas "our son", but savor the newness and specialness (if that's a word) of it as long as you can before it starts to feel too normal. All of it is such a wonderful gift we should resist the temptation to take it for granted.
