Number 42

1)  One more day with Sharon ... saying goodbye tomorrow will be sad!  We made yummy Thai pizza for dinner!!

2)  Today one of my students prayed before class and thanked God for the sparkling weather!  I thought that was cute.

5)  My taxes are finished and sealed up and ready to go with ladies that return to the States tomorrow!  (I know this seems late seeing as how they are normally due on the 15th TODAY, but overseas residents have an extension!)

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 t...
