Busy Bee!


This last week has been so busy, I have not had time to post. So many wonderful things have happened and I have wanted to update you, but I have not always had access to the computer or the extra time needed to tell you everything I want to.

First B - "Breath", take a deep one! No, we don't know any more than we did the last time I posted about when Owen will be home. We do know that things are moving along with immigration and we hope to get some more information this week or next from Korea.


Second B - "Builder." Remember the post about the storm damage? Well...most of it has finally been repaired. Our builder was able to come out and fix our windows, siding and ceilings. Yes, the hail stones packed enough punch to crack our plaster ceilings. You know what that means...we had to have the ceilings plastered, sanded and painted. That equals a big mess. A huge thank you to my in laws who helped a ton moving furniture, covering furniture and giving everything a through washing before putting in back in its place. Kind of felt like nesting.

Third and most fun B - "Baby Showers." Oh my do my friends a church and at work know how to throw fun parties! Both had Asian themes - very cute!

The church shower was about a week ago. 13 ladies from my Sunday School class joined together to throw the most wonderful shower for me. Here is a picture of the cake. None of us speak Korean, but we are told that is the Korean word for son. Isn't that the coolest? Owen received so many wonderful gifts. He is already loved by so many people. We are truly blessed to have such wonderful family and church family.

Today my office threw a shower for me. It was supposed to be a diaper and wipe shower, but several office members "cheated" and gave other gifts too. We are set up with diapers and wipes. My friend Barbie (who is very talented) made a slide show of Owen for the event. I will post that very soon too. I am so thankful for my office, I know God has me right where He wants me. Here is a picture of today's cake.
Three points that all start with the same letter. In the South, we say, "That could preach!"

One final B - "Blessed!"

That's what we are!

God bless you, my friend.
