A day in the life!

I start the day having to calm Grace down and explain to her that she gets to pick her own husband one day. This comes after Andrew told her his friends Patrick and Nolan are coming over. Not knowing the matrimonial sensitivities of his new sister he starts to tease her about having her marry one of them one day. She cries. I explain to her that if she wants she can remain single forever and that she gets to pick her husband and doesn't have to get married until she is 45 if she wants. I explain to Andrew that in Ethiopia some girls are married off at 10 years from their families sent off never to see their mothers again. And they get pregnant around that time and end up in the hospital etc. Andrew is mortified, Grace thinks the boys coming over are her future husbands..i calm everyone down.

Grace and Ella go to have their TB tests checked. They are positive and now they have to get chest xrays at the health department and probably meds for 9 months. They can not infect us or anyone.

On a plus note, Matea's eyes are working well. Her vision is now 20/25 and there is a possibility that she will be without glasses soon...YAY! (soon means months or tops a year).

Mark and i are starting a forum called GOD MENTIONED on yahoo. You are all welcome to come over with prayer requests, miracles or just funny GOD INSPIRED tidbits...We are still tweaking it and will send out official invitations soon but consider this an advanced invitation. http://www.groups.yahoo.com/group/Godmentioned
