My Life

I am currently in Honduras visiting my daughter Karen, her husband Dorian and my precious grandson Korbin who will turn one year old on 21st. Karen is director of a children's home in Santa Ana Honduras.  I am giving details because some have told me I don't put enough details in my posts.  So I am trying to make this informative to those who do not know all that is going on in my life. 
I wish they lived closer but I know God is in control.  This year I am enjoying every minute and celebrating each day. 
Last year this time I was waiting in Ohio for Karen and Dorian to come home and give birth.  Their flight was scheduled to fly them home on November 22nd, six weeks before her due date.  She went into labor and and an emergency C-section was done in a clinic (they call it a hospital) here in Honduras.  He was tiny and I learned a lot about preemies.  They Karen developed a blood clot and there were a few days that I honestly did not know if we would lose them both.  Praise God they got healthy and were able to fly with me back to states in December.  They returned to Honduras end of January. 
I made the trip to see them for Easter and came back last Friday so that I could be here for Korbin's first birthday.  So this will make the second straight year that I will miss Thanksgiving and Sharon's birthday. 
Korbin is such a miracle and I thank God for him. 
Today I will begin to tell you a little about what life here is like.  If the internet stays on and Lord willing I will attempt to continue throughout my stay. 

First of all I miss heat.  It is currently 68 and very windy at 10:30 in morning.  It got down to 56 degrees last night.  Doesn't sound cold until you realize that there is no heat.  I won't complain as we are cozy and dress accordingly.  most people here live in small shacks made of wood or tin or even cardboard with dirt floors.  I am blessed to be able to stay with Karen and Dorian, in their apartment in Casa de Esperanza.  I will try to post some pics later but Korbin is wanting to be held and that is this grandma's priority.
