THE RESCUE OF JOSEPH KONY'S CHILD SOLDIERS


God said "Whatever you do for the least of these, you have done unto me..."

I highly urge you to visit THIS site...what an opportunity to serve.


May of you know, that I have spent a big part of my life in Uganda. It has been a life altering experience that I can never forget...in fact, I have never felt quite as "at home" anywhere else in the world. I have many current relationship with many "children" (who are now adults/nearing adulthood.) whos lives have been devastated by this wicked man. Joseph Kony and the LRA has been destroying lives for years and years. My heart is with these children and families that have been destroyed by them. I urge you to investigate this tragedy and become involved in anyway you can. Watch the video abotu this particular rescue or visit INVISIBLECHILDREN.COM to see what other ways you can get involved. Thanks for looking...I would love to hear your feedback as well...

Happy Pity Party Tooooo....

MEEEEEEEEE!!!

Im having a crappy day. It's my birthday. Yesterday, well it was supposed to be fabulous. Will got tickets to the ballet...Romeo et Juliet...well we bickered and I'll be honest, argued all day!!! No fun...then we made up and tried to enjoy the rest of our night...the ballet was awesome though.

Will has to work today...so I invited my two good friends over to spend the day with me...well one got sick and the other text me this morning to say she couldn't come...I started bawling my eyes out. I think Im homesick for the first time. In CA, birthdays are big deals...its kind of stupid I guess...its like you're turing 5 every year. And my birthday is always near this three day weekend so its like birthday fun all weekend, at least...but here I sit...just me and Solomon all day...with no car. Im making my own bday dinner and my own bday cake...Im sorry...Im just sad...

Its the baby's fault...right??? ;)

I Forget...

I forget how to do this whole blogging thing. I must stress that we JUST got our internet hooked up and our computer is sitting on the living room floor...this is not comfortable for a newly 7 month along pregnant woman...plus its just ghetto and annoying in every way. Solomon is cuddled close in his blacket sleepers and robe while being hypnotized by CARS...ugh...I hate TV...but 325 emails forces me to put it on.

I was going to try and back track all that has happened...but I can't...and I don't want to. I will say, work is going well for Will. He is pleased with his current situation. Solomon is doing great. We are trying to schedule lots of playdayes with Candice and Abby...and we have even joined a moms groups. We have only attended one event but we had a really nice time doing it. I...I am doing ok. I miss April more than words can explain. Its not that I don't miss other friends...but I think that the point in my life that we moved, spending time with friends was done so few and far between that it seems as enough time hasn't even passed for me to think that I am actually across the country from them. But April...she is my best friends, my sister, and she was apart of our every single day. Even though she will be here in less than 25 days. I miss her insanely. We text all day long, talk every day...and still...it is not enough. She is coming the last week of April and will be staying until the end of July...unles (hoping hoping hoping) I can convince her to just stay with us permanently.

I'm feeling a little overwhelemed. Our house still isn't unpacked. We have been here since the 15th of January...well at least we moved our stuff in. We love it...but I cannot stand all the "undone" things. I just want them to be completely how I want them...finished. Who knows when that will happen...

Will is leaving in a few hours for Denver...until about 2am Monday morning. Since August 2004, we have never spent a day apart. Is that weird? I have been really nervous and sad. And Solomon is BEYOND attached to Will so I am just praying that we all survive. Its hard being pregnant in a new somewhat foreign place...and your husband needs to get business done...so sad. I hope this seminar is worth it...its a practice building/managment group. So I hope he likes them...and hurries home safely to us.

I think thats all I can get out today...sorry I'm a little gloomy...
