Merry Christmas

The house is full of food, the family are together. The children are excited - they've already got their new Christmas Eve Pyjamas on... The tree is twinkling & surrounded by gifts. We all have a lovely Christmassy feeling. But I pray that you and we will all feel more joyful & happy when we remember all our Wonderful Saviour has done for us.

Happy Christmas, with 2 kinds of chickens!

Saturday morning... up for breakfast with my husband at Dobbies, while poring over a copy of Poultry Magazine... then home for a bit of a tidy up, then out of the attic came the tree & all the deccys.  We put them up (3 sets of lights on the tree, which isn't even very big!) and, wearing elf hats, the kids decorated it to the sound of christmassy tunes emanating from Lola's blackberry.  Then upstairs for a bit of gift wrapping... feeling very festive today.  they put 3 easter chicks at the top of the tree, which I am going to keep there, because Christmas Is About Easter... the Lord Jesus came because He Loves Us So Much, but also Jesus Only came for One Thing - to save us by dying & being resurrected. So HAPPY EASTER!

My street kid

I have received my orphan from www.elijahshope.com.
His name is "Sidy", he's 9 and a street kid in Mali. He is muslim & may have living parents somewhere.
He has been told someone out there is praying especially for him.
That would be me!
I know the Lord listens to our prayers & His will is to save orphans & place the lonely in families.
(John 14:13) (psalm 68:6) (James 1:27)
So I look forward to hearing about Sidy's life in the future!
