Blessings Surround Us

Our valentines day has been extended throughout the past week, and we are very thankful for that! We praise God for the time we have had to rest and relax over the past week. 

We had a valentines date night last Friday without sharles thanks to our wonderful neighbors, who gave up their valentines night to watch Sharles. Josh and I went to a pizza place ran by some local missionaries here. We love their pizza, and it was nice to spend time just the 2 of us. When we got back to our friends house to pick up Sharles, they had made brownies and ice cream they shared with us! And she and Sharles had made us a valentine! It was such a great night! 




On Wednesday of last week, we were able to take our staff to our beach property for a day of relaxation! We wanted to say thank you for all the hard work they always do! It is also always nice to see and catch up with Matt and Sarah, who run our orphan retreat center! They have gotten a new house for teams and we were able to go see it too! The view is absolutely beautiful! They are working to get moved in by mid March, so please be praying for them and all the things they are working on there at our beach property. Sharles also had a blast playing at the beach! She loved the water! 





Over the weekend, our amazing friends bought us a night at a very nice hotel here in Haiti to go and rest for the night! We are so thankful for the time we got to spend together as a family and to relax! We had delicious food, a great nights sleep (we were asleep by 9pm) and fun playing in the pool. Sharles is a little fish and didn't want to get out of the water! We even got rain while we were there, which we haven't gotten in months! 






We are so blessed by each one of you and want to say thank you so much to each of you. We are not only blessed by your gifts, we are blessed by your prayers, and we feel them. My heart is so full as I write this! Thank you again to each of you for loving us!
