Spring is coming

Our boy is growing.... today we went for a walk, It was -6C sunny, beautiful...ops I forgot my camera at home, anyways. Sammy said "Mom look, a bird.... is flying..... bird come here, I go to chase you... Mom ..... Let's go and chase the bird, Mister bird where are you?....." He was talking and talking and having a great time.
I was touched by his joy as he enjoyed God's creation, a sweet bird flying around.
I prayed , giving thanks for the beautiful snow,
As we walked we could hear birds singing, the splendor of God's creation



Sammy was getting more and more excited , he was getting louder and louder. 'Bird come here. Bird where are you... Mommy another one, I count, 1,2,3,4,8,9,10... 10 birds"



I can not deny that I miss our family from Brazil, I miss family/friends that are living in BC, that winter is hard and long over here , and a cold day is REALLY a cold day.
In a cold windy day placing your groceries from a shopping cart to your car can be a very interesting experience..... YOU GET VERY COLD
God's presence is more real for me here, maybe because life is so different then before.
We just know that God is holding us and another really is that HE LOVES US DEARLY

That day he had such a mad hair day, fun, fun, fun, at least we can have a mad hair day together....hahahahahahah as Mike said. :)

"Thy word is the lamp into my feet...."

Hooray Samuel, for noticing the birds. Only now at my age am I noticing the birds in a new way and I am as excited as Samuel.
