we are now up to 14 girl littles, the highest since i've been here and there are probably more on the way. we could really use prayer right now as we are trying to adjust to having so many girls. it's challenging because we used to be able to have close relationships with almost all of the girls. as the numbers increase, it's harder to maintain the close relationships with them. we are learning that each of us will soon only be able to connect with a few and invest in their lives and not neccessarily be close to all of them. it's hard because my heart breaks for each of them and i want to invest personally in all of their lives but its just not possible. i am learning to trust God in this area...He knows how to best use me in the girls lives.

norm and i :)


waiting

sorry its been so long since my last update. it's crazy how busy things get here and how little time it seems there is. this past weekend was LeadTime parent's weekend which meant that my parents and family could come visit and hang out for the weekend. it was really good to see my parent's, cree, benji, and izaac! it was nice to be able to show them around and let them get a better feel for how things go here because its so hard to describe without being here. we had a lot of fun and it was relaxing! i was so blessed that they were able to be here!!



it's been pretty emotionally draining here lately, but God is continually humbling me and reminding me that I can't do it on my own strength.



lately God's been teaching me to wait on Him....to fall more and more in love with Him and as I'm doing that I'll know what His will for me is.
