Grateful!



  • Grateful for the freedom of worshipping without fear.
  • Grateful for having enjoyed amazingly perfect weather for 28 years of my life.
  • Grateful for having grown up wrapped in the colors and beauty of Spring.
  • Grateful for all the history that paved the way for the establishment of my family and my life.
  • Grateful for a country that though not perfect was the wonderful setting of my childhood and part of my adult life.
  • Grateful for 185 years of independence!

This week in school we talked about Christopher Columbus coming to San Salvador. As we looked on the globe at the countries of southern North America/Central America, I showed the kids where to find Guatemala. "That's where Keila grew up guys," I said. They thought it was so cool that someone we know grew up in another country!!

We've been talking about you guys a lot in school recently. Just last week, Max's curriculum gave directions to write each child a letter explaining why they were given their particular name. :) We got to tell Max all about Daddy's good friend, Ben. Sooo cool!

Even though we're far apart, you are SO in our hearts ~ Love you.
