Adam got baptized. It was really cool. We have a little pool that was filled for him and the leaders here baptized him. The kids wanted to get baptized as well. Maybe they just wanted to swim but it's to cold for that right now. Afterwards we ate and celebrated. He is now a child of God hehe.
We had our 1 year anniversary this month. Which was AMAZING. Really we were so blessed. I kept thinking we just don't have enough to spare for a "nice celebration". Annnd then. Gabi (Adams Sis) writes us and says. Hey guys you missed one envelope from the wedding from our auntie and it's quite a bet of money. Adam went ahead and organized the whole 2 days for us. And even the babysitters. It was perfect #blessed.
We lost one of our base workers. She had a c-section and then passed away nine days later. She had 3kids and husband. It was so sad and unexpected. People hear morn on a whole different level. We live on the other side of the base and we can hear the friends and family wailing. They also occasionally pass out and almost lose their mind sort of say. It was pretty intense to watch.
I told my babies Mama G (lady that passed) is in heaven with Jesus so we won't see her around anymore. Joshua says "did you see Jesus come and get her? No love I didn't. Joshua: "Did you see what cloud she went on to get to heaven? Umm no but that would've been cool.
Angel: "Thank you Jesus for blessing mama G". We heard for a week in a row in her prayers. And I couldn't agree with her more.
Our lawyer also informed us that we got all new judges in Arusha. Meaning we will have to mention our case to a new judge. Sooo on the 23rd (which was suppose to be our hearing) our lawyer came to see another judge and to mention our case BUT no one was there. So they schedule us to come back Oct 29th so we can mention our case to a new judge and then schedule a hearing.
Meanwhile we applied for residency. So we are part of a real mission instead of just living on tourist visas. Adam will be the one involved and I will be a dependent. (Stay at home mom:) :) :) All is well in our life.
I can not wait for this process to wrap up. I miss all of you more then you know. I feel like I am not the same person anymore with out you guys in my life. Sometimes I wonder what it will be like to be around you again. I realized this month that my love language is words of affirmation. I told Adam I never new how important it was to me because I was always around people that complimented me on everything I did and said and looked like. Not to say that is all I needed for you but it was definitely not something I lacked before. All that to say I miss you guys so much and hope to be in all your lives someday soon. Lets start envisioning a miracle from God Together:)
Thank you everyone who support us financially. God bless your soul. And thank you for not giving up on us Haha I know it's been a while since I got here. God will and is blessing you as we speak because he called me here and you are agreeing and supporting my mission to bring my chocolates home. Thank you!! Love you.
