Encouraging words on a flurry day

Blahhhh - So we get up this morning and it’s flurrying outside! =P

Anyways…  -Our group had an assignment a couple weeks ago, I just now got around to read some notes they had for me… between them I had a few words that were *VERY*  meaningful to me.

 K said:

“I love being your friend! You have a gentle spirit that invites me in…

… it’s just the patient way you present yourself…

A said:

“you are God’s work of art…

… you are one of the most incredible person I have ever met…

 Dr said:

… what a kind woman you are! The youngest of the group but your experiences in life had made you grow fast… your faith is immeasurable”

I’LL keep these encouraging notes around.

Lots of fun time and good food

Samantha came by to watch the kids Friday morning while I went to Shelly’s for the Bible Study. We had a very nice as usual


Benji only wants to be “tataouside” all the time so Saturday Dan had Bill & Jeff helping to get the steps done on our deck so we don’t have to go all the way around the house LOL
It looks great and apparently was more complicated them everyone expected. We left for a couple of hours to the “annual” Brazilian children’s Easter Egg Hunt at GrandMae’s house.

Benji enjoyed his time, and all the candy! Noah ate grass and mud. =)

Later that night the Kilgalons came by and Amy – we grilled out, had some wine and smoked some cigars while the kids played in the basement/outside – Very nice time…
Sunday flew by – we never noticed and the only thing really I accomplished was a little shopping at Michaels, Target and some laundry!

We went to Frank & Dari’s house by Papa’s request and hanged out there way later then we should – lol – it was so good! The kids played wel together and like Dari said: “It felt a little like home”

They gave Benji this awesome train table with a lot of tracks and trains - he played on it al day!
- Thanks so much Dari!

Papa stayed at home today and that is always the best so the boys were all over him, we had Tim & Katie over for dinner, we had sushi, sashimi and the best best best fruit for desert -Yummie!! =)

Friday's Post: Strong


Today’s bible study was pretty good. Since Dan is still home I didn’t have to worry about Benji. We read Luke 5 – and Dari had such great things to share with us. I feel so good in my heart about this woman. As we talked today, we have good friends there, sisters, woman we are intimate with (not in a sexual way) that we can share fears, thoughts and much more! I’m so glad it’s turning out to be much more than I expected!

Thursday's A different Thursday

Today Dan stayed at home sick. So he stayed with Benji for me to go to LLL meeting which was *very good* Lots of good information!

Dan went to the Dr. and ran to downtown to get Noah’s birth certificate, stopped at the groceries and showed up with flowers today – how sweet was that?????
