Spring is on its way...
The sunny days are getting more frequent, the sun is out, and the air is fresh. Grass is starting to turn from a dead dirty brown to a slight tent of green...
And I LOVE that it is still light when I get off work!

Setelekoane Setelekoane
I have been sponsoring an adorable little boy from Lesotho - a country in the middle of South Africa - for a year and a half. Setelekoane is 3 years old and has parents who can't provide for him. I got an adorable card at Christmas from Setie - just some scribbles, but it meant so much.
I have loved being able to make a difference in a family's life. It was such a small amount for me, but hopefully meant a lot to them.
It broke my heart to get a phone call from the organization. Setie under went surgery for his tuberculous and has had a tough time recovering. He died this week from his complications.
The little boy with so much potential. The little boy whom I planned on visiting in the next few years. If he lived in the States, he would have had proper medical care.
Wednesday morning when I got the call I was having a particularity busy day and was anxious about getting everything I needed to get done finished on time. After that I realized how futile that is. How much more I should be striving towards. How I should think of every day as a blessing from God and not as a right that I have.

Personality Types
I haven't blogged in a bit, but I wanted to get something up here. So instead of pictures this time, I'm going to post something else about myself. Over Christmas break my family took personality tests and we all read about each other's personalities. It was so interesting to realize how very differently we all process and deal with situations. My personality type is an ISFJ - Introverted Sensing Feeling Judging. I felt like this website described me very well.
I would suggest if you haven't already, go online, take a test and read your personality type described out. You can find your strengths, weaknesses, which personality types you get along with best, and so much more! Go to personalitypage.com.
