New Friends


 Mommy's sidekick! Man, I love this kid.

Yesterday morning Jake and I ventured across the great unknown that is Edmonton to Ellerslie Baptist Church. Prior to leaving Saskatoon I emailed many churches in search of a ladies morning Bible study. My search led me to Ellerslie Baptist. Jake and I were greeted at the nursery with open arms, loving baby talk (for Jake not me) and lots of reassurance. I was off to get a coffee and join the rest of the ladies for the morning. I was also greeted warmly. The lady I had been in contact with came up to me and said, "You must be Erin." Perhaps I looked a bit lost :-) I had a great morning of discussion and prayer. Jake had a morning of playing and a nap How wonderful is that? They had a place for him to take a nap! We both left refreshed. I from adult conversation and a couple hours of being "baby free" and Jake from a much needed morning nap. This morning I am thankful for welcoming community, loving servants in childcare, and the internet and email to facilitate it all.
