“a good God is everywhere”

August 25, 2012

And this week has been surprising with new steps for Adam. He is laughing more than ever, crawling more than ever, and has figured out how to make sounds thru his tracheostomy (which excites him more than anything else).It has been beautiful to see him recover._____________________________________________________________But, let’s just […]

sorry to keep you waiting…

August 18, 2012

just so everyone is aware… Adam has recovered well. We ended up staying in Musoorie thru the week to finish Adam’s IV antibiotics.We could have moved to oral antibiotics, but the risk of not catching all the sickness was too much of a risk. We have had an amazing pediatrician caring for him.We left the […]

Many of you have been lifting up precious Hadassah faithfully in the weeks since I wrote about her. If you do not recall her, you can be updated here. She is one of many women in India who have walked thru depths of difficulties that I at times cannot fathom. The statistics are many and the […]

the One of all comfort

July 20, 2012

Why? Why?Why such injustice?I needed/need answers that are understandable to my finite mind.My temporary vision.My mourning heart.Just like His […]

July 16, 2012

 I wish you were here with me as I write this.Actually, if you were here, I would not be writing. I would fix you a steaming cup of ginger- spiced chai, offer you (ladies) a head scarf, like my own, to tie back any annoyance that humidity and indian heat may be creating for the lovely […]
