thanks.
- ship holidays - 2 Saturdays!
- the opportunity to hurt with those who hurt...to weep with those who weep
- making snow (we officially had snow in africa)
- playing on the dock
- sweet winnie-the-pooh pictures that reminds me of a middle school friend
- alarm clocks (set it and forget it)
- sweet letter from miss caitlin carr
- caroline & anna's "club show"
- read 1/2 a book today (what a saturday!)
- stephanie buchanan's generosity (and willingness to be here at 6:10 each morning)
- sweet time with suzanne
- the kids' discovery of "youcam" and the pictures they've produced (not sure where caroline saved hers...)
- waking up in the middle of the night & knowing that i get to sleep a few more hours
- freedom.
- excellent timing.
- making rice krispy treats with my girls
- tracey's willingness to keep emma so that the walk to the orange store was a bit easier
- "My Spirit who lives within you helps you to think My thoughts." - jesus calling
- encouraging words from shelley
- the moments when peace settles in (and when the words in jesus calling are close to identical to things i just wrote in my journal...)
- wonderful afternoon in the cash cabin - cash 3 + 6 extra children...peaceful, joyful playing
- not a single request to go to mid-ships
- emma went to sleep peacefully and easily
- mercy ships will be featured on 60 minutes this sunday
