The months seem to be flying by in a blur. We’ve been here almost 19 months now. For most of that time I’ve seemed to constantly be running around just to trying and keep my head above water. To say it’s been busy would be a gross understatement!
We’ve just had a week in the African bush. It’s been heavenly. I feel as if I’ve finally been able to take a deep breath! The warm, dry climate - the stillness - the wide open space - the gorgeous sunsets - all have been so refreshing. Even Sossy, our dog, seems to have a new lease on life!

Home is where the heart is, and I guess my/our heart is here now.
“God gives…….a home.” Ps. 68:6
