arbre de vie - john and ashley, jillian, justin and rachel - incredible ministry and incredible people
holding babies. (these are triplets that a sweet mama didn't know she was having!! extra info: they aren't orphans - they are part of an infant feeding program that arbre de vie helps make happen.)
"chaco's, yeti cups and big sunglasses" friendship
well spent ship holiday
caroline willingly, happily and excitedly went with us...and loved on some babies and children so beautifully.
the blessings and treats that come from filling in in reception
remembering amy & jon's anniversary
watching community in action (friends decorating another friend's office entry way)
evening stroll on the dock
talking with monica
tough good-byes (so so so very thankful for real friendship that makes me want to go throw up in the ocean after saying good-bye - but ONLY good-bye for now!)
washing little girls' hair in the shower at the pool..makes life so much easier
shelly's hospitality - she truly is the hostest with the mostest.
celebrating brian and leanne
coolness in the air after the rain
cinnamon honey butter
really wonderful packages from aunt amy and from yaya
loaves and loaves and loaves of love bread
moana with nick and suzanne
eli's opportunity to do work experience as a kindergarten teacher
when i'm moving clothes from the washer to the dryer and the dryer is empty and the lint filter is clean
nick's laughter (especially thankful for the messaging between him and sam during the football match)
hiding easter eggs on the ceiling
hearing sweet new (to me) songs that i've managed to miss since living on a ship off the coast of africa (the luckiest - ben folds and thinking out loud - ed sheeran)
cozy sweatshirts
lydia grace's lovely life (and her mama). strong. beautiful. purposeful. yes.
