all I can say is "gross!" (about the snake).
I'm sure you have heard it lots...I'm so grateful that the Lord has such faithful servants in your family but I'm sad at the thought of you all being so far away.
Love ya
Sonia
The snake is a bull snake, not a rattler (whew). I am praying for your family as you move to Ireland. (I know the Heighs)Thank you for being such faithful servants!
