new hairdo......... potatoes..........rocks ......... fun


new Hairdo.... I liked a looooooooooooooooootttt.....

last weekend we were talking about our rocks...... a friend of mine was touching, enjoying looking at, reflecting about how we took the time to see, select, explore and carry our rocks from BC to here....... I remember walking with Mike with pockets full of river rocks....
How beautiful the rocks are after a wash..... water and rocks....
and How God cares for each one of us, we are chosen by God, by His unfailing love.
He is searching us like a lover, the Lover of our soul.
It was so profound and deep,

Another amazing discovery for me this week... I had REAL POTATOES given to us.
Yes, real organic farm Canadian potatoes.............. they look real, dirt was around, they smells different..... It was kind of misty and wet like.... ok It smells like dirt , inside they were so beautiful and clear...... I prepared a corn chowder soup........." It is too good Mommy" ( Quoting Sammy boy words). Ok folks now life has a different standard..... spuds can be so creamy and taste and smells different. I grow up in the city, more specific Sao Paulo/Brazil, no it was not in the jungle.... no I didn't have a monkey as my pet...... and cement was my childhood backyard.....
"And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind...... and God saw that it was good. So evening and the morning were the Third day"

April 13 2009 so many changes

It is like looking at a familiar scene from a different perspective,
I was captive and now I am free


Today life is so full and alive.
5 years ago It was so different
Our baby Joshua was going home to spend eternity with our Savior and Lord,
"Blessed Assurance , Jesus us mine....."
I look around me today and I praise You, God,
You rewrote our story, you gave us a new Hope, you moved us away from BC and showed us that "You will never leave us ..."
"My chains are gone , I am set free, my Lord my Savior .." Amazing Grace song ....
My soul is moved , God is moving and changing ME

Abundant life WITH CHRIST
Abundant life IS CHRIST IN US


Look at this picture
Spring is here, snow still around, but the bbq area is available to be used and enjoyed, Sandbox is available to experience and explore.
Fellowship, Heavenly provision and JOY,
Sun is shining , bright and powerful.
I want more of God

Thanks for your Love for us and a NEW SONG inside my heart
Thanks for fellowship

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...."

It was a beautiful day, some powder snow around the little church on Lake Errok ( between Mission and Harrison Hot Spring / BC)



Actually I was wearing my wedding dress....... It was a victory for me, friends
it is a milestone for me.


Our fab dinner steak and fries, Mike was barbecuing , It was -15C.... I love him, he is so passionate for God and for life, everyday is a BBQ day, even If it is -15C.....



Now we are here living in Alberta, celebrating this time as a couple and as a family with
our Samuel.

"Thank you Father for loving us, as you had promised , Thanks for Your love that is Perfect and complete, Thanks for loving Mike and me and for keeping on teaching us how to love"

MIKE I LOVE YOU MORE TODAY THAN YESTERDAY AND I AM GOING TO LOVE YOU MORE TOMORROW

I LOVE YOU
