It's my mom's birthday. On March 4, every year, I will remember how thankful I am to have had the best mom. If she was still here, I would have called her, wished her a happy birthday, have sent her a beautiful bouquet because she loved flowers, and have had a nice chat about what she and my dad have done today to celebrate her. I miss her so much.
Lately I have been going through our family photos so that I can make a memory book for each year. Of course, I come across so many that make me smile, especially ones of my mom and dad being amazing grandparents, and sometimes my mom just being silly (like holding up a book about Cranbrook). Here are a few from 2011 when we were in Canada visiting, and from 2012 when my parents came to Ukraine after Kai was born.

Yesterday, I had a chance to go with Cassie to the fine arts museum here and see the Renoir exhibit. I love Renaissance art, so that was super fun. Then this morning, Kai made me coffee, Cassie made me breakfast, and I was able to pray with some wonderful YWAMers here for people groups in the world that don't have bibles in their language. After working for the day, I went to watch the junior varsity boys play volleyball because Ben is their coach... and they won! The day ended with some yummy pasta and early to bed. Thank you to all my friends and family for the loving birthday messages, calls and treats. I'm so thankful!

We are mostly all unpacked in the new house in Budapest. Cassie and I made earl grey cupcakes for our family and served them on the platter we made to honour my mom when she passed away. The time between the two photos? A few minutes :) ahhh... settling in...

Had a great time teaching Song of Songs to the Amsterdam SBS. Kai was my 'Security Detail' in his words. We had a great few days together.

It was such a life-giving time to gather with others in Europe who work with YWAM in Bible Teaching programs. YWAM Kristiansand in Norway was so kind to host us. Lots of exciting plans and thoughts came from this gathering, but most important was a greater commitment to work together.
