A Story of My Own: "How do I surprise someone with pancakes who wakes...

Here is a little more on my birthday from my niece Natalie's blog. She is an everyday gift to me. :)

A Story of My Own: "How do I surprise someone with pancakes who wakes...: "So today was probably my favorite day in India so far.:) I got to celebrate the life of my hero with what felt like the entire city of Bhar..."

September Is Almost OVER

September is almost over and well, it's a busy month! BUT I did need to get back to how my birthday celebration went - since I promised.

I HAD THE BEST BIRTHDAY OF MY LIFE.
Really. Thank you Lord.
Very loud poppers at the cake cutting - notice G. and me covering our ears.
I was fed loads of cake - I think there were a total of FOUR cakes for me.
We had so much fun playing games all night. We just laughed and laughed. One friend told me she got her smile back that night. Another man said that after the party he sat outside his house for an hour and a half and just laughed.
So much FUN!
This is what happened to my girls when the party was over - I pretty much felt that way too, except I spent about an hour laying in bed laughing to myself about ridiculous happenings that night.
I loved all the phone calls and I especially loved visiting our Bible College and Karuna kids and having them extend their hand toward me and pray for me. I love those kids praying for me. I am blessed.

Map In India

If you don't already know, my niece, Natalie (a.k.a. "Map") is staying with us for about 6 months. She's a great blogger - and much more profuse than her aunt these days!

City Palace, Udaipur, Rajasthan
Come on, I mean - Look at the view!



Land In Rajasthan

The stepped land in these pictures was a rocky, hilly piece of worthless land that belonged to O.'s family. Over the last year we've been clearing it off, leveling it out and putting up a wall. All this in the hopes of one day starting a Hindi Bible College here and a medical clinic...
