Another Happy Mail Day!

Friday was a really good day. Not only was it the first day of my extra long weekend ( I didn’t have any kids to babysit), we were blessed to receive a letter from Niyomugabo in Rwanda. I’ll share it with you.

He starts with “Beloved Sponsor, Your child Niyomugabo is greeting you in the name of Jesus Christ.  Niyomugabo and family are fine and thank God and believe you are also fine.

Here, we experience a dry season but sometime back, we have been receiving some rain. Those who grow crops, are also happy because they will get a good harvest.

He believe you do not have a problem of earthquake over there. If you have children, greet them.

He came from school, is in holidays and there is no problem and his studies are moving on well. In Rwanda we are in the time of remembering our people who died in the 1994 genocide. Remembering our people ends in July and we wish you a good Easter. We love God and continue to be near Him. We remember that Jesus died and resurrected for sake of our sins.

May God protect, give you strength, give you peace.”

 

It was so exciting to get another letter from him. I have now received letters from both of my correspondent boys, but none from Alejandro, our sponsor boy, yet. I contacted Compassion Canada and their looking into it for me. I hope to hear from him soon. 

Did you receive a letter from your Sponsor child lately? I would love to hear about it!

My Mid-Life Crisis?

This has been a very difficult year for me. I turned 35 this year and I feel like I'm in the middle of a mid-life crisis. I have been trying to 'find' myself again. For the last 12 years I have pretty much had things figured out but this year when my youngest started grade 2, it felt like my whole life tipped over. Now, there wasn't any outward tragedy that I went through, no, it was more of an emotional, internal struggle that has been taking place. Realizing that my family doesn't need me the same way, but they still need me. Having a lot more free time and not knowing how to fill it, actually, to say that I didn't want to do my domestic chores to fill my time would be more accurate. So many decisions were suddenly available to me, decisions I hadn't considered in years. "Do I get a job? Full or part time? What kind of job? Do I go to school - just take some courses or get a degree? What kind of courses/degree? Do we have the money for me to go t...

So, I was gonna write a nice long post today, but then I remembered that I had a bunch of cute pictures in my camera just waiting to be displayed. So, enjoy… I couldn’t think of a cute saying for each picture, cause It would take me a long time. I’m just not witty like that. But, I hope you enjoyed the pics! Have a great day!!
