Modge Podge

May I present a random collection of thoughts, experiences and pictures:

First thing's first... THANK YOU!!

I was going to post a thank you to all of you who helped in sending me a package that I received and I'm sorry it's so late, but it's happening now!



We have been enjoying all of the contents of this package. The boys and I made the fake snow, we've been drinking the hot chocolate and we've made quite a few batches of delicious nachos with the taco seasoning. Thank you so much for your generosity in sending it. It was a massive package!! 


I thought this would also be a good time to share the photos from when I was able to see the kids get their Christmas boxes! They were all very excited.




It was really amazing to see the other side of the Christmas box project, but was also a little disheartening. Corruption is ever present in Madagascar, even in distributing Christmas boxes to kids.

Since we're rolling on the pictures I'll go ahead and share some from things Micah and I have been doing like playing with play-doh, practicing fine motor skills and learning the letters in his name. He is hilarious and I enjoy him so much. He's my buddy.


Also here is a picture from when we celebrated Madagascar's Independence Day! All of the kids get these lanterns and carry them around at night when the fireworks go off. They're all hand made out of paper and inside is a place to put a small candle... possibly not the most fireproof lantern ever made... but it works as long as you don't shake it too much.


So there you have it. The most random blog post ever. I'm so thankful for all of your support and prayers! Thank you so much! A longer blog post to come soon!

Whoever seeks to keep his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it. Luke 17:33
