47 Days of God's Grace

I just spent the last several minutes on a lady's blog that has a very sick little baby boy...he's only a five months old and when he was in the womb he was diagnosed with heart failure.  Tomorrow this little boy will be having surgery.  Reading about him and seeing pictures of him and his family made me realize how blessed my family and I are with good health.  It made me realize how thankful I am that my beautiful three nieces are healthy and strong!  Here are some recent pictures of them ...

I cannot wait for the next visit with them!!  It will be so much fun one day to see them all together!  That will be the day :)  Let me list a few more GST and then it's time for me to head to bed.  I'm really thankful for the time I had to catch up with my cousin and to have had a really good talk about life and spiritual matters!  I had a wonderful bday dinner with my roommate tonight - gotta love the Asian foods!  It was a good Monday, despite the fact, that normally I do not enjoy them!  I'm also thankful that it is bed time now and I have a wonderful bed to sleep in!!  On that note ... g'night all!  Until tomorrow!

10 Months

Baby Z is ten months today.  She's moving into toddlerhood and out of babyness...boo hoo....She's starting to have her own little will and get angry when things don't go her way.  She's realized she can make us laugh.  She loves watching little kids and squeals with delight.  Stroller rides are a favorite and also nice for a little snooze at times.  Cheerios are another favorite {she's a great eater, just not a good drinker}.  Sleeping through the night is almost an everyday occurrence {PTL!}!  Her sleeping postions are always quite amusing...you never know how you will find her.  She's incredibly curious and loves getting into things {empty boxes, laundry baskets, bags, etc is highly entertaining}.  If a cellphone or computer are somewhere near her, she doesn't waste any time getting to them.  She has so much energy.  Naps are kept short, often a half hour, if I'm lucky an hour.  I'm so thankful for this sweet, little, energy bundle.  I look forwa

Welcoming strangers into my home

For 16 weeks now, we have had a young refugee couple from Syria living with us. They have been married a little over a year and for the majority of that time have been separated from each other, since he made the journey to Austria alone and got everything in order so that she could come legally.  Let me backtrack a bit and tell you how it all started. As the refugee crisis really started to explode here, facebook was buzzing with articles, videos, pictures, etc. of the situation. I read a lot. I saw a lot. I was moved. I was troubled. But what could I do? I had a three year old and one year old at home.  ... I could teach some German. But when?   ... I could donate clothes and other items that were needed. But that didn't seem like enough. ... I could give money. But I wanted something more tangible.  I would put my youngest to bed and during those days, she needed lots of TLC in order to get to sleep. I kept thinking about the refugees and how they didn't
