Happy Easter to your family! Great to read about Ella’s big meal. T.V. distraction can be a blessing. My 1 year old was laughing and smiling and clapping at Ella’s pictures this morning. He knows a happy baby when he sees one. Enjoy your long weekend.
He is Risen!

For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Matthew 6:21
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
2 Corinthians 12:9-10
The heavens praise your wonders, O LORD, your faithfulness too, in the assembly of the holy ones.
For who in the skies above can compare with the LORD? Who is like the LORD among the heavenly beings? In the council of the holy ones God is greatly feared; he is more awesome than all who surround him. O LORD God Almighty, who is like you? You are mighty, O LORD, and your faithfulness surrounds you. You rule over the surging sea; when its waves mount up, you still them.
Psalm 89:5-9
We continue to lift you three up to God daily in prayer.

There is not life apart from Him! He is Risen! He is Risen indeed! Because of His gift we can face everyday, do things we never would have guessed by contiuing to abiding in Him.
When I see Miss Ella I am reminded that He is holy, righteous, gentle, strong, loving, merciful, creative, our provider and sustainer. . . I see all of that when I look at her beautiful face. . . She reflects Him!

I just love your new pictures of “Daddy and his favorite girl”. Your family continues to be an inspiration to mine. Have a wonderful and satisfying (food for Ella) weekend.

Happy Easter to your family. Thanks for the great post Josh and the beautiful reminder to us all how we are to depend on God for all things. Your daughter is so beautiful – I could just hugged her so much – I wish we could be closer to help both you and Tina. Please know that we think about you all daily and you are in our prayers always! Have a wonderful long weekend all of you. Keep up the great work Ella!

I love that y’all remember where Ella came from and who is taking care of her and of you. She has been an inspiration to a lot of people (as seen on this site) and I can see His work done through your little family. It makes me appreciate my four boys all the more and reminds me that they are only on loan to me; it is my job to bring them up knowing and loving Christ and to be Godly men when they grow up. Blessings to you and your family this first Easter together. I am glad that Daddy gets to be home for a long weekend (maybe Tina will get an extra nap in!) and to celebrate Christ’s rising for us. God Bless you and Ella. The Kuhn Family: Tom, LoriAnn, Tyler, Zackary, Seth, and Jonny
