we love our ward

In our church, after someone has a baby, the families can sign up to bring meals to the new mommy and her family for the first week (or longer). Our particular ward has gone above and beyond though. Our Relief Society (the women's group) president got people signed up for well over the first week, and not just for dinner. Some people brought breakfast, lunch, and even cleaned our house for us. The boys were so excited to see some of their friends those first few days. It was SUCH a wonderful gesture of friendship. We love our ward here, and will really miss it when we leave. Sadly, I didn't get pictures of most of the people who came, but here are some. Can you tell they love babies?! :)

How nice! In our ward, we only got 2 meals when Jacob was born.

Such a nice thing to do. In our church it's called the service committee I think.
