11th Birthday

Merrilea was sick for her birthday this week so viewing Jungle Book was a no-go. Merrilea's still sick so our family outing is post-poned till a better time. Something to look forward to!

BUT Nafisa's birthday can't be put off! 

I think there was fun knowing she's as tall as her friend's mothers!

Just had to Post

I saw this and just had to post it!  Loving and enjoying both places. 

Friends say HI

Last month we went to a wedding reception of some friends from the past. There, we met some old friends! Thought you might want to see some of them. The ladies were the primary school teachers for Maria, Joseph and Danielle.  We had fun telling them of all you are doing and where you are. ;-) 

Field Trip!

This morning we went to Malhargad Fort with friends! Merrilea was not well but tried anyways! She's a trooper. We had fun! It's about 40 minutes from our home just outside the city.

 

 Nafisa, dreaming that she'll drive.

yeah, Merrilea kinda got bushed from the journey. she's still recouping form being sick.

We see this going in circles LOTS.

Giving Time

Giving time to others has been a fun part of what we are about. We've made some good friends and have been able to share truth and life with many.  These kids are precious and we are grateful to Dr. E. for allowing us to spend time with them. From teaching, crafts and playing around, it's been great!

I'll never forget one of the guys we've been able to do this with. We'll call him 'Norm!'   "Norm" came over in April of this year with a group from Ohio. Great people with lots of love to give.  We are so grateful for partnerships like those that go a long way in getting that love to spread around to those who need that extra loving attention. Thanks Norm and to all you from Grove City who made that day possible, building into the lives of these wonderful children.
