Thankful Thursday

Louanne on Feb 21st 2008

First I want to say thanks to my friend Robyn who sent a Chinese New Year gift box to us all the way from Canada. She sent a case of Wunderbars (that’s right, a case..YUM), Smarties and one of her favorite books for Nadia. It’s called “A Wrinkle In Time”. The 2 images that follow here are something I told her about that she wanted to see. Sherry’s Place in GZ made these for us after we bought about a million pairs of squeeky shoes. The first is Nadia’s Chinese name and a dog because she was born in the year of the dog. The second says “Happy Family”. I think they are just so pretty.

Year of the Dog 

Happy Family 

  • I am thankful that we are a Happy Family! Our life is just wonderful and blessed beyond belief.
  • That my friend Jacquelyn is out of the hospital and healing at home.
  • For my cousin Jen who is coming for a visit this weekend. YEAH!
  • That the packing for the trip is mostly done. Just need to toss the clothes in and pack the laptop. WOOT!
  • For mac and cheese. When Nadia won’t eat anything else, she will eat this.
  • For Karen taking care of the KIDS HOPE program for me while we are gone.
  • For all the people that have told us they will be praying for our safety and fun times on our trip.

    So, how much mac and cheese are you packing? A suitcase just for Nadia’s M&C? (hehe!)

    I am so excited for you guys, what a fabulous trip!
