I thank God for wonderful parents whose love and unfailing devotion to me never cease
I thank God for siblings who despite our ups and downs will always be loyal no matter what. It's true what they say. Blood IS thicker than water.
I thank God that they were intelligent enough to provide me with remarkable sisters in law
I thank God for a loving and patient husband who puts up with me despite my bossiness and anal retentive nature

ReplyDeleteIt might take even years to rebuild Christchurch ...
500 buildings affected ,some historical ones notably the Deans bush flattened . We are still getting lots of aftershocks ,even right now ....on going at the moment -curfew,CBD,businesses ,schools are closed ,churches are not spared .Reief centres opened for hundreds of residents made homeless by damaged ,inhabitable properties .The enormity of the quake aftermath starts to sink in .
ON the bright side ,there was no fatalities and heaps more people like our family are blessed to survive unscathed ,even our dwellings unaffected.
It feels so surreal !!! Praise the Lord
Let's forgive each other .I love you ALL .
Ooh... I'm so holding you to that Mi! :-)
