Two New Additions To The Family

Yes we have some new family members in our home. Yesterday my son and I went to the pet store and bought two zebra finches. I have always wanted this kind of bird as they aren't a "squawky" kind. The make sweet little squeeking noises. I have named them Ruth (actually Ruthie) and Boaz. In the book of Ruth in the Bible is the story of Ruth and Boaz. It is somewhat of a romance of its day and quite a lovely story. Since this union further establishes the lineage of Christ it is even more special to me. Perhaps Ruthie and Boaz might hatch themselves a little Obed!!!

Boaz is actually one of my three favorite names for boys and if i had it my way i would name a son this. The wife doesn't like it so much though.

I read a really good book once called "Men are from Israel and Women are from Moab". It was on relationships according to Ruth and Boaz from the book of Ruth. I highly recommend it.
