WE
LIVE IN A COUNTRY……
……where
“I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder”.
……where
we hear monkeys chattering and climbing on our roof and in our trees.
……where
we are FAR from most family and friends, but we have been blessed by family and
friends that are here.
……where
power outages are expected.
……that
is tropical.
......where
getting to work in a thunderstorm is nearly impossible due to mud and bad
roads.
……where
making coffee by boiling water on the cooker is not an inconvenience.
……where
the windows are open until the wind blows in rain.
……where
we can love on children and babies anytime during the night and day.
……where
cereal can cost $7 a box.
……where
berries and grapes are rare and costly.
……where
pancake syrup and other items we are used to having, may not be on the shelf.
……where
internet is our communication to our family and friends not with us.
……where
they are two seasons, rainy and dry.
……where
we get the opportunity to see parents with their adopted child, walk through
pain and grief with them while waiting on court, passport, etc. and then
rejoice in the “going home”.
……where
men guard our yard, house and gate both day and night.
……where
we are blessed to have someone do most of the laundry, cleaning, and cooking so
that we can be with the children and their families.
……where
we can worship, rejoice, pray, speak the Word of God, and display any
Christianity principles without condemnation or recourse.
……where
our children can learn about their heritage and be taught the heritage of the
Lord.
......where
laughter, dancing and singing proclaim that God is good!
……where
we have been blessed to come and live.
THANKS
TO ALL OF YOU THAT MAKE THIS POSSIBLE, IN THE COUNTRY WHERE WE LIVE!!
