Thankful Heart/Kiitolllisena

After two weeks of camping out, the girls and I headed out to civilization (aka town of the closest Walmart - an hour drive, seriously). We had fun, and now have a stocked fridge and pantry.



We desperately needed to make the trip for more provisions, but a) the weather up here had been so beautiful last week I didn't want to spend the day in the car and shopping and b) at the camp we had no space for any food. Cooking, eating & cleaning up had been a major chore. We had been surviving on pizza, canned soup and sandwiches. Pretty much on paper plates, taking turns eating at the teeny RV table (while our camp is being rebuilt).



But as of last night, God provided. SO clearly. He arranged a house for us to rent. On our road. It takes about five minutes to walk from this house to our camp. This house is large enough for our family, everyone actually has a real bed. We have a kitchen! We have a dining room table big enough to seat all seven of us, a living room, a bath tub, laundry. And as of tonight, hot water and heat too.

God is good. All the time. (And this mama is so thankful.)

Kiitollisin mielin kirjoitan, että kaksi viikkoa leirielämää on vihdoin päättynyt. Taivaan Isä järjesti meille ison vuokrakodin samalta tieltä, missä meidän mökkimme on. Kapteeni voi kävellä aamuisin työmaalle seuraamaan mökin uudelleen rakentamista, ja me muut voimme pitää kotikoulua ja normaalia arkea kauniissa, isossa, mukavassa talossa. Tänään tyttöjen kanssa jopa ajoimme viereiseen kaupunkiin supermarketiin (tunnin ajomatka) hakemaan ruokaa ja tarvikkeita - leiriarjessa kun elettiin paljon pizzan ja nakkien avulla.. Kiva reissu, ja tämä mama on kiitollinen kun sai taas toimivan ja mukavan pesän ympärilleen :)
