Update

Here is just a quick update on the happenings at the Johnson household.  I don’t have time to write much.  Recently the only time I sit at the computer is to prepare sermons.  Bonnie is now about 6 months pregnant with our second child.  We find out in a few weeks whether the little soul is a he or she.  (We both hope for a she, maybe she would be a little calmer than Carter).  I am in the thick of the building project at Grace.  Since taking over much of the building; Dad, volunteers, and I have putting in long hours (11-13 a day).  We are so grateful for those who have given of their time, talents, and money to help us build a new sanctuary that will hopefully honor our great God.  Please continue to pray as we still need money to finish the project and pay off the loan. We are near completion and the stress levels are rising.  I just wish there was more than 24 hours in a day to accomplish all that needs to be done.  Oh well, when we get to heaven there will be no night so we will have unlimited time to worship and serve Christ.  Carter’s growing fast.  At 17 months, he is saying phrases, running, jumping, and wreaking havoc on Bonnie.  He was excited that “Papa” was able to come stay with us for the last six weeks.  We got a potty today, so we will see how that goes!  His favorite thing to do is to race his cars, trucks, and backhoes all over the house making loud revving noises.  He sometimes gets to come to work and ride on the “cackow”  (backhoe) with daddy.  Now, every time we see any yellow construction equipment, it is a “cackow”  and he wants to drive it.  I will post some pictures of Carter in the cackow when I get them off my camera.  God is good all the time and I take comfort knowing that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men. 

Here are some Carter pics for those fans.
