April Updates.....

There is nothing quite as exciting as opening up my email and seeing the inbox say "GLA-Updates" and knowing that there is a great surprise behind that email.  Every month the orphanage sends us a written update with what Judith and kerby have been up to during the month, information about height and weight, and then a fresh new batch of adorable pictures.  This month was no exception!

I must say thought, I was a bit disappointed because I have been trying so hard to be patient and wait for the email update to see if the information regarding Judith's birthday and the kids responses in finding out about us and receiving our family book was included.  It was not.  We still don't know if they told the kids about us, what their responses were, how Judith's birthday was, and pictures of the kids opening their birthday gifts from us.  We were told they would tell the kids about us on Judith's birthday, April 1st, but we have heard nothing and it is killing me.  I have worked so hard to be patient mostly having some self-control because I thought "well, it will be in the monthly update" but its not.  I am feeling my self-control disintegrating.  Patience Rori, patience...all in good time I suppose.

I am however grateful for the update that we did get.......

Happy Good Friday.....and thank you Jesus for what is to come on Sunday!  We serve an amazing and gracious God. We have so much to be thankful for in what Jesus sacrificed for us. Praise Jesus for who He is and what He has done. All He asks in return is to not only know who He is, but to have a relationship with Him, to love Him, and to love others and be in true relationship with them.  Fall in love with Jesus....the reward is more than can ever be imagined !!!
