Dear Family,
God is truly blessing us through
vegetation, fruit and plant sales. I
even had a plant buyer say, “Wow, this is a blessing” after we loaded up her
car with plants and it was only $20.00. I
love how God does that! I am blessed. Therefore I can
bless. The blessings pour over us, and we can’t help but share.
I am also very blessed by those
who came to pick raspberries. If I
picked the fruit by myself (which I did a couple of times) it would take
between ½ an hour to 1 hour a day. I like
the raspberries but not that much! I
enjoy the company and that people are excited.
I also love it that Adriel and Seth have been helping daily as
well.
Bobby thanked me for attending
youth group Tuesday. I enjoyed walking
with the youth group and even had extra steps that day. It was a walking tour of Wallace Marine, Riverfront
and Minto Brown Parks.
Bobby and I were able to enjoy a
date this week. I am glad we can take
time to be together especially since he will be
gone for weeks at a time. Camp Tapawingo will be in full swing, and I know he will be enjoying himself there.
Bobby cooked some amazing meals. I enjoyed them the first time, and I LOVE the leftovers. Yum!!
He is creative and loves the flavor. We are so
blessed by what he creates.
I am thankful for Bobby’s
mother. She gave us a large container of
water and Bobby was able to lift it to fill many of our water containers. Having bad water has only been an
inconvenience for us. I can’t imagine
living in a country where there are no other resources. We are blessed to have bottles of water, jugs
and even free places that the city is dispensing water.
Seth made pizza once this
week. He also overheard me ask Adriel to
team lift an item. He asked what I wanted to lift and then did
it all by himself! Yay for a strong son!
Seth is funny. He bought a game because it was on sale. He played it, said he didn’t like it, made
fun of it and kept on playing.
Sometimes media is so bad it’s good.
I’ll admit I truly enjoyed mocking The Twilight Movies with a
friend. We laughed so hard!
Adriel was happy to walk with me
and sell some raspberries to raise money for Marching Band. It was nice that she thanked me for picking them. It was also nice that we have such wonderful
neighbors.
Adriel also gave some of her tithes to a youth group Dodgeball fund (for the Mexico team). Bobby rejoiced about that.
I enjoyed walking with Adriel this week.
She wanted to run with a friend daily but found out she hates
running. I enjoyed walking some at Minto
Brown. It is quite beautiful.
May you find beauty in all that surrounds you. May you know how much you are loved. May you enjoy all that life has to offer,
every breath. Much Love,
Cristy VanKleek
