Sharing Beauty and Wisdom

This morning I went with my mom to a little brunch get-together that her friend put on for her. About 15 women attended and my mom shared updates and told stories of life in Africa. I had heard many of the stories before, but they were still fascinating and touching and incredible to hear.

I looked at her talking with her friends this morning (something I haven't been able to do in six months!) and thought how truly beautiful and wise and wonderful she is and has become. Since serving in Africa, I think my mom has grown a lot and it was just neat to observe that beauty and confidence that comes with the increased knowlege of and relationship with God. I can honestly say that I hope to turn out like her when I grow up.

This is where we will be staying for a couple nights in Kenya before we go on Safari. I get to see the Indian Ocean!

Booya!
