Finally Friday!!

I managed to get time this morning to prepare the talk for church on Sunday. I ended up going to the library to focus and some guy stopped by my table and asked if I was a Christian...but in the whispers and surprise, I thought he'd asked if I was Cristina, ha!! So I said no, haaaa! Thankfully I quickly realised my linguistic mistake and we had a really encouraging whispered chat for a few minutes!
As I walked about town, this painting spoke to me about the season I and a few others find ourselves in. 
A talk-writing and kid-ferrying rest of the day!

Today I'm grateful for;
1) The encouraging interaction with the guy in the library.
2) My brother in-law being OK after a horrible assault.
3) Asha getting a really good grade back in maths for this term. That 1 hour a week extra support is making a huge difference.
