We have much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving! Kevin and I (along with 5 others from our church) just returned on Saturday from Guatemala once again. And, after being reminded of how little the Guatemalan people have, I have much to be thankful for. However, their joy seems so much greater than mine. I learn a lot from my Guatemalan friends and family. What a wonderful week we had! It's always a huge blessing for me to be with the Impacto staff again and feel totally at home. There is a great peace that envelopes me when I am there. I look forward to and hope for the day when we can return for a longer period of time--however God allows!
The kids did great while we were gone and had a fun week with our friends Dan and Liz who cared for them. They had some funny stories to share! :)
It's hard to come back to the cold weather! We've had some cold, rainy weather this week. Winter is fast approaching.
I ran in a 5k "Turkey Trot" this a.m. and couldn't feel my feet when I first started running! :) But, it was fun and now I won't feel as guilty eating so much later today! ha!
And, we will decorate for Christmas tomorrow! I always look forward to that! It is as the song says, 'the most wonderful time of the year'--or at least one of the most wonderful times.
I hope all have a very blessed and Happy Thanksgiving. Count your blessings!
