A New Year

Well girls, 2010 is drawing to a close.  It's been a very busy four months or so in my life. I can tell because I seem to be praying about my stess level a lot lately. 

Funny how when things in our lives get so busy, we lay aside the things that bring us the greatest peace and joy.  My time with God seems to be so much shorter these days. I miss the peace I get from spending quailty time with Him in the mornings. 

Blogging has brought me such joy.  I love writing about the books we have explored.  But as of late I havn't taken the time to read much less blog!  I'm looking for the slower pace after the holidays.

So here is a renewal of commitment to our book club and blogging.  I hope you'll join my in the renewed spirt of reading and sharing our thoughts as be tackle Crazy Love.

Exciting News

Hello Girls,
I have some exciting news to share and it couldn't wait till our next meeting. Do you remember when Jason Goh, our missionary from Thailand, came and spoke to us?  He touched my heart with his stories of the Burmese children who are refugees in Thailand.  So, taking a big step, I decided to sponsor one of the children.  I'm so excited because today Jason sent me a picture and information about the child God paired me with!  Her name is Mine Mine.
Isn't she adorable?!  She's 5 years old. She loves the color pink, rope skipping and enjoys apples and chicken soup.  She wants to be a teacher when she grows up.  Isn't that neat?  I'm so excited!  She drew a picture and wrote a note too.  It's so cute!
Thanks for letting me indulge and share this piece of news with you!
