Blessings

I have so much to be thankful for... sometimes the busyness or stress of life can cloud that. Perhaps it would benefit us all to take a step back and remember the blessings in our lives.

A beautiful sunset. A good conversation with a friend. A English Learner student finally beginning to speak in class. Rain that brings with it relief from the heat and the promise that rainy season is just around the corner.

What are you thankful for today?

Thank you for this post Emily. It really does help put things in perspective. We do have a multitude of reasons to be grateful. Thank you for your faithfulness in writing your blogs. It brightens my day when a new one is posted. Mom really enjoys reading them also.

Take Care

Dearest Emily,
We are thankful for you! Also we're thankful for our entire family and that we are all employed. We are thankful that our new house offer was accepted and we, Lord willing, will be new home owners next week. Take care, we love hearing about your adventures.
Love, Barb and Dennis

Emily, what kind of fruits are in season now in Bandung? I noticed that in your previous post you'd hold weird fruit tasting events.

thanks,
