When I was a sophomore in college, I co-taught a 10th grade girls' Sunday school class. Beautiful Kelli, with her sharp wit and passion for the Lord, was in that class, and couldn't stand an obnoxious boy in the youth group named Chandler. When I asked what had happened since I'd seen them last, Chandler said, "I grew up." I love that kind of honesty!
They have both grown up (okay, we all have... they really aren't much younger than me) into a beautiful family with a precious little girl and a heart that beats together for God's work in Africa. Hearing them talk about the mission work they want to do there after seminary was inspiring and encouraging, and I know that the Lord is going to do great things through them.
The three of them, along with their sweet weimaraner, Fenway (Why yes, they're big baseball fans; how did you know?), went on an adventure with me around downtown Louisville and then a nearby park. The urban setting of downtown was very different from anything else I'd done so far, and I was a little nervous about having a toddler and a dog, but I LOVE their pictures and I loved getting to spend some time catching up with them.
