I'm beginning to think a lot about Christmas

November...already.
It's after 5th so I can allow myself to prepare.
Hoping to improve on hand made this year...watch this space!
Loving the all white minimalist decor look.
Trying to keep things in perspective, do you know what I mean?
I mean it's not all about glitz and glam is it?

Read a blogg today that inspired me to think about "who I am in Christ"
What my new name in Him is?
Who does He see me becoming? A rock like Simon who He renamed Peter?

Kenya trip was postponed, it's looking like February!
Excited, nervous.
Questioning "why me"?

Wonder if Mary thought that ever?

New year, so whats new...

I can't believe it's over 12 months since I last wrote. So much has happened:
Sophie made us so proud by achieving amazing results and getting a place at Manchester university
alistair had amazing achievements in football and cricket (not called trueman for nothing you know!)
Sophie moved into halls & although I was keen to help[ her make her flat homely I didn't want to make it too much like home- do you know what I mean?
Dad died
Christmas came and we managed it
Alistair is studying hard to get the results he desires for his future
Cris is supportive of all that the children want to do & does all he can to help them achieve it
I am going to Kenya in June to teach radiographers to do CT!!
Remember to never agree to something without thinking it through first!
But God is good, He never ceases to amaze me with his generosity and favour.
