The Play Center

Here are my adorable little kid's that come to the Play Center that I started up here at the mission. AREN'T THEY PRECIOUS?! I love them, (even when I have to change poopy pants, and hear screaming and crying for awhile...) Enjoy!

Girls' night out




Here's some pics from our Valentine's girls night out. We had so much fun talking and laughing about different things and about our different cultures/countries. That's one thing I really enjoy about being here. I have friends from Venezala, South Africa, Holland and learning and hearing about all the different lingo (words) and ways people do things is quite interesting and sometimes brings many laughs : ) Good times, good times.

Will You Be My Valentine?

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!

For those who have that special someone, I pray your day is full of blessings in each other's presence.

For those (like me) who don't have that special someone, I pray that you know that you are soo beautiful and cherished by ME and by your friends and family.

And for those who don't care about Valentines Day.. well... I pray your have another great normal day.. being boring...

As for me, my valentines day has been really great so far. I helped Dione help the pastor this morning with decorating Angeline's office with hearts and flowers and words. They really haven't done anything for Valentines any year so she is getting A LOT today. It's soo cute! Then we are planning a candlelight supper for them tonight : )

And I did recieve a beautiful red rose from some anonymous person...but, I should let you know that all the women at the mission did as well. haha.

Tonight I'm hanging out with 8 girls and we are dressing up all fancy and going out to the Steak House for supper. 6 of us from the mission, plus, Andrea, my physio therapist and her friend, Katy and another girl, named Terese.

Remember, God loves you! And me too : )

PACKAGE FROM HOME!

Oh my goodness, yesterday was soo exciting. My mom and our friend, Terri, had sent us a package beginning of November and it came yesterday! 3 months later... haha. Oh well, it was the perfect day to get it. Thank you soo much mom and Terri! And thank you Gramma! It was a great surprise to see a gift and card from you too! I love you all so much! It was nice to have a second Christmas in Africa : ) Thank you for the gravy, the sweet santa hats, the amazing cute soft fuzzy socks, the beautiful family picture, and the PROGRESS! Oh my goodness, I never thought i would ever be so excited to get a newspaper in a care package but I was. haha, it's funny cuase i never read the paper at home but now that I'm here I was soo interested in it. I gave it to Sanjay to read. He saw the job listings and now he wants to come to Canada. What a guy. haha Today I took a lot of the candies and some of the toys that were sent to the hospital vist and it worked out soo perfect for us to give the gifts away to mourning mamas and mama's going through great stress and worry and for the children who are stuck in the hospital. So thank you so much for being a part of the ministry here through the gifts from Canada!
