One of the nice things about having an old house with lots of rooms upstairs is that you don't mind hosting when the call is made...yep, had 6 boys upstairs all week! (2 were mine) They're from Houston and spent their Spring Break up here doing service for others. We actually had 3 of them last year so it was a sweet reunion! I couldn't have asked for a nicer bunch and if they are this great all the time their mommas and daddies did something right. My boys also practiced hospitality, which means to them: staying up LATER, jamming on guitar, playing Xbox, breaking out the leftovers at midnight, and making new Facebook friends. So yes, I'm saying my boys hosted while I was the taxi driver, junk food breakfast provider, and giver of motherly advice. Hubs wanted to send them off right this morning, with a stop at Starbucks!
Now to get caught up on all those things I put off this week...

What a great send off.....I thought of you hosting this week cause my dad was helping out a group from LCU who is here on a mission trip. But he put them up at the church building not as nice as your house!
Wow. I'm having trouble having one boy. You're a champ.
I really admire you for using your house for God and opening up your home to so many teenagers over the years, both here and from afar. You just never know the influence you will have on them...and the guests on your own kids!
You'll always have a special place in the hearts of those boys! Very, very neat! How neat that all four of you served as "hosts" to them :).
