Yesterday was my first full day of work, and it was incredibly exhausting. I pretty much collapsed at the end of the day, but in a good way. I love my job, and I love all the little kids. One is getting adopted soon! I'm excited for him, but of course it'll be sad to see him go
Besides taking care of babies, my life pretty much consists of drinking tea, playing guitar, and hanging out with Jesus, which I am absolutely loving. I don't have a lot of time in the day, but what I do have I've learned to use wisely so I don't waste any of it. It feels much better than laying around doing nothing, which is usually pretty easy to do, especially during the summer
It has rained so much here, it's pretty unbelievable. Everybody is telling us that his is 'Cape Town weather,' not Johannesburg weather, because it usually never rains here in the winter. I heard a rumor floating around that snow is possible...I might be slightly bitter if it snows here, although July is supposed to be their coldest month
Thanks so much for all the prayers and encouragement. It's good to hear, and definitely necessary. I have no new or pressing prayer requests, just the same ones as before. There's nothing too exciting going on right now, but I go to Suweto (sp?) for a half day on Saturday, which should be pretty sweet. So I'll write more on that later
Ok...off to drink some tea and warm up hopefully =)

Hey! I am glad to hear things are going well. I will continue to keep you in my prayers. Keep seeking the Lord and showing those children Jesus! I look forward to hearing more updates.
ReplyDelete"It feels much better than laying around doing nothing, which is usually pretty easy to do, especially during the summer." Hahaha. Hey, now. Thanks for not naming names. Goodness knows I've been guilty of this several days this summer. Boo. :( Time to get off of my butt, I suppose! So, thanks for that. Hehe.
ReplyDeleteI love you, girl! I hope everything's going awesomely! I never thought about the fact that it's actually winter down in Johannesburg. Interesting.
I wonder if you saw my video from Tuesday. Oh, gracious. It was ridiculous. My sister and I donned ridiculous workout gear and fake belly and butt fat to do an exercise video. Hahaha. I hope you can see it sometime if you haven't because I guarantee you'll laugh so hard you pee your pants. My sister is hilarious.
ALSO. I miss you! God bless you, girly. :)
