sunshine

Wishing you a weekend full of Sunshine!

Love the everyday.

 Sister is going through a 'cheese' phase and I am loving the smiles

I am getting out of it!

 David growing so fast. He seems to have gotten so much more

alert in the last few months.

 Sisters new favorite place to nap. It works everyday.

Put her in the swing, give her a blanket, and in 5 min.

she is out.

 This boy is FINALLY walking! we have been

working daily on it and this week he got up

one afternoon and just started going. BUT

he will only walk when HE feels like it.

Its so fun to see how proud of himself he gets

when he gets up and starts going.

 Stone loves watching/playing with his hands. It keeps him entertained

for hours. He will hold his hands up and just look at them, laugh,

and look some more. So thankful he has been able to stay healthy

for the last few months!

 Tafique throwing one of his morning fits when the aunties go inside

and don't ask him to join them:) The rough life of a 2 year old.

 Omar looking so grown up.

 John getting to be such a big boy!

My Drama Mama! 

This kid is one extreme or the other, and I love him to pieces!

How Beautiful Are The Feet.

This verse came to me as I was sitting beside this lady

at Falmouth infirmary. She didn't talk, she just sat there,

and smiled at me, touched my hand, patted my back, 

and smiled at me again.

Its incredible who God uses to minister the 'good news'

of His love for us. And how he does it so perfectly

through a smile, the touch of a hand, and a pat on the back.

Thank You Jesus for These Moments!

Lazy Sat. Mornings

 Its been to long since I have been able to have a lazy Saturday 

morning with the kids here at KP.

It was nice.

 It was a beautiful sunny morning with a great breeze and we did

our best to simply soak it in.

Its been windy enough recently that the kite building

has begun again, and there are now daily kites

everywhere. 

The boys search the campus high and low (and 

pull from the rubbish bin), bringing me

all the possible pieces that can be used to 

make a kite.

Good Times Had By All.

Thank You Jesus for these Memories!

KP Beatification Projects

Its that time of year again. Sports day is in less then

 a month away, and the 'houses' are already competing to

 earn points for their team. Each 'house' took over

a raised flower bed, down at the school, and fixed

it up to earn points for their team.

They all turned out great.... except the 4th flower

bed that was just ignored because their are only

3 houses:)

JOC Visit

 We had the JOC (Jamaica opperational committee) here last week,

they came with their wives, and they brought Lynn and Leonda Stiglitz.

It was a fun week and the picture above shows how many of my days 

started....early!

 Thankfully, this is how/where we spent the first day of their 

arrival. It was LOVELY!

The next day we started our visits.

 Blossom Gardens

 St. James Infirmary

 Falmouth Infirmary

 Juci Patti in Falmouth.

Blake's favorite part of the trip:D

 Pastor Morris and Ms. Morgan at Mile Gully

 Going over the blue prints for the New Hope Addition!!!

Its was so fun to watch the JOC loving on my babies at New Hope!

 I Praise Jesus for my team!

 They are the Best!

The Group for the week

(minus Tashi who had to go back to work).

Thank You Jesus for these times.

Jamaica Day

 Last week, before the kids went on mid term break, we had Jamaica

Day here at Knockpatrick.

 Getting the kids excited about Jamaica.

 Nicholas starting the time off with Prayer.

 Pre primary/ primary school

 The government debate between with  Mr. Andrew Holness

 (Pastor Damian), Ms. Portia Simpson the prime minister

 (Ms. Johnson), and their supporters (vocational students).

 One of the many displays.

 Just for Kirk.

And to finish it all off the 2 different goverment

parties come together to sing a song :)

Thank You Jesus for these Fun Days.
