Where has the time gone???

Wow!!!! What a couple of months its been!!!!! A whirlwind at that!!! So....hold on tight and i'll fill you in!

November saw me spending two weeks living in one of the houses of my community I am now a candidate with to get a basic idea of what community life will be like. It was an awesome experience full of graces and love. And having my dose of puppy love in the literal sense as they have two dogs who are very awesome.

Then...Thanksgiving and Christmas came along!!!! And all sorts of crazy, busy, good times at that. Thanksgiving saw my sister Julie home and several of my Aunts and Uncles there for dinner. We had much fun playing games and teasing.

Christmas saw both of my sisters home. We had a blessed celebration together. Perhaps had a bit too much fun at times. but...then? who can say theres much a thing as too much fun??????

Well....that brings us to now! Just as I was ending my two week live in I found out that I was entering in January. My entrance ceremony was Sunday. It was a beautiful ceremony with family and some of my friends in community at the house I am now living in. And as with all our celebrations it was beautiful! :) Even had the parable of the Bamboo in there which has been an important part of the journey for me. And so...the journey continues!!!!
