Cheri Kay in Haiti....where my life became meaningful.

We here in Haiti hope that all of you in the US had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We were blessed with a huge Thanksgiving dinner with Turkey's, stuffing, mashed potatoes and all the fixings!!! We had about 73 people at our house and it was a wonderful day. Ecrissa's pre-school class did a thanksgiving presentation with the kindergarten class. It was so cute. I was laughing because the pre-school class is learning sign language and singing songs and doing bible verses in sign language because of having Ecrissa in the classroom. However, during the presentation, all the kids were doing the signs EXCEPT Ecrissa! She was staring off into LaLa land and her hands were behind her back!!!! Oh the joys of the watching these kids!!!! The kids and I are so thankful for our family, friends, all of your prayers, and the Love of Jesus Christ that is keeping us safe and provided for each and every day!!!!!

God keeps teaching me lessons every day! These past couple of weeks have been trying for all of us as we continue to mourn the loss of Katie. My 3 year old son knew Katie and is often asking for her and wanting to see her. Last weekend, I was getting him ready to go watch football with some other friends, and he said to me "are we gonna go see Katie??" with a big smile on his face. I had to say "No baby, remember, I told you that Katie went to be with God"? He said, "where momma?" and I told him "in Heaven, remember". He then said "OH Yea, with Jesus, her daddy." I couldn't believe it and I just started crying. I said yes, baby and remember, Jesus is your daddy, and my daddy and Ecrissa's daddy too. I am just amazed that this 3 year old can say things that really are so true and simple. This helped me remember that God loves me and He is my daddy and He lovingly adopted me into His family with the love of a daddy. ...
