Compassion International

My hubby and I finally agreed together on something regarding a child. We've chosen to become a sponsor for Enoch. He is 4, and lives in Togo.

Enoch

Such a great day.  The service was touching, and everyone had the opportunity to sponsor children.  He was one of the two that were on our seats.  I may only get two letters a year which will be fun, but still only two and I like to write although really what to say to a 4yr old who lives on the other side of the world in very different circumstances from myself? 

I hope that this picture is kind of staged, I hope he really does smile.

This last moth has had some significant stress that can not get into detail about, but prayer would be appreciated of course.  All of that is off topic of course, but I'm still mulling it over in my mind.

It will be nice to have something else to think of other than PCOS.

Visit from family

We had a lovely visit with my aunt and uncle this past weekend. My aunt had my hubby laughing. She's awesome, not the syrup sweet type but the brutally funny honest. They had decided to forgo another drive to see San Francisco in order to walk more. I seemed to have taken up the challenge and took them on a tour of the city. So, we walked all around old town sac and through the downtown mall. We couldn't let Old Town be the only site they see with us, so we took a drive along the Delta for dinner. Coming back the sun was setting, it was beautiful. The ray's weren't completely golden but it was a lovely drive.

We also took a walk by our house, along the river. The doggies came with us on that walk and entertained us quite well.

Sunday we went to church and worshiped with all of Bayside with Lincoln Brewster at the lead.

The only downside was we overindulged in eating out. I seem to have been the first to start paying for this. But tonight I did Zumba, and I'll be eating salads and homemade this week.

Took a side trip to see where I work, and see that the area really is perfect for pictures.  We even saw cute ducks
