I cannot believe it has been a month since I have written here. All I can think is where has the time gone? So here is a preview of the things that I am going to try and catch up on.
May 16th....we cannot believe it but it has been two years since David walked into that little office in Urumqi, Ch*na and we were officially his mom and dad. This little boy has changed so much, as have we. I am so thankful to have him as our son! More to come with pics hopefully.
May 17th...we celebrated our first National Day in Norway. These Norwegians love their country, that is for sure! It was a lot of fun and will be looking forward to their 200th year next May.
May 20-21...Farmor and Farfar were able to get tickets to Liseberg for the whole family. This included all day passes for all the rides. We were able to get to Gothenburg and had a wonderful day with cousins, Aunt and Uncle, and grandparents.
May 25th...a years since we had arrived home with David.
June 2nd...David is starting pre-school and I am working up to letting him be alone there. He is doing beautifully and although this is hard at times, I believe will be really good for him.
June 7th...We had Andreas' 20 year high school reunion. Can it really be that we have been out of high school that long? Although I am thoroughly glad...it was not the best of times for me. However, it was really good to meet up with his old friends and see what was going on in everyones lives.
June 8th... a years since Morfar died and our Board meeting for the non-profit in Sweden. As we remembered the wonderful man that Morfar was and how much he added to all our lives, we dove head first into our desire to help with Nepal. It was a great meeting that really showed us that the Board cares about what is going on.
We would really appreciate your prayers right now with Nepal. We sent money for their monthly expenses about two weeks ago and they still have not received them in Nepal. Please pray that we can work this out with the bank quickly...as they need the money in Nepal!
Hopefully, I will get time to put some pics up and share with you how God has sustained us through all of this. I am also working on getting my CV together and finding a job. That is another one that could use a lot of prayer.
Praying for so many of you. If you have a prayer request, please feel free to share it. Would really love to pray for those who have always lurked.
Blessings,
Laurie
