Joy Project!

99) Warmer weather (45 instead of 35)

100) Having time to volunteer in Erik's class - more on that later

101) A lunch date with Victor today

102)  Being friends with kind and generous people who willing give away their time and talents to help others.  To find out more about my cool relatives visit the following blogs....

A)  Cousin Nila is an ENT surgeon and about to head to Africa to do lots of corrective surgeries.  She has gone on many, many medical mission trips in the past.  I am hoping, once my kids are bigger, to join her some day.

                    Go HERE to read more about her trip!

B) My cousin Julie's husband Brad just got back from Uganda where they are building a school.  Brad and Julie live out in the middle of nowhere and their small town (village really) church is sponsoring this large project to build a boarding school for many needy kids.  Kind of like Oprah, only with a lot less attention!

Thanks for the link! Our church isn't exactly in our village so it has a few more people than our 100+ to draw from, but many people in our village are involved. I wouldn't want people to think I live in a unprecedented village, although our gas station is quite something.
