Thank you for your prayers...Chris' mom is home now...Chris is away from home on a business trip...Here's our address sign..notice it is broken, but still says our address. Andre fixed it up for us yesterday, and Sophia & Andre planted flowers in the pots. Katya & I planted in the beds a bunch of flowers. I explained that they are like babies, their "necks" are fragile so be careful and she was. She remembers planting flowers at Tatiana's home in Ukraine...we had a very very nice time planting. Now I know why people enjoy planting things, because it's very peaceful.
"But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and he meditates day and night......
................And I heard Pachebel's Canon today and it reminded me of my wedding.....it was a chamber practice in our home and it was like a dream come true for me as I had hoped our home would be one of music and gatherings of people...
Jaclyn is "meditating" for quite a while in the peaceful tree..that she reads in occasionally.
Below is a pot that is broken...vessels just like us, broken, in need of a savior...some day we hope to replace them with something the boys make out of wood or stone. But the flowers will help.

Here are a few more we will plant tomorrow...
......and the sunny bed we planted, and all of our tools, hoe and shovel were missing in action! Katya personally planted all of the plants so we'll be happy to tell her as they grow beautiful all summer. She even planted our beds at our older home. Tomorrow, we plan to look into a job for Katya at an elderly home near here..as a server of food. I think she will do well at this job. She cares about people and is very helpful. Today we have have a very beautiful family.
I have my first showing of our old house tonight, will all the tools, and messy garage..hope they think it's beautiful despite it's "brokeness look"....and if it's not for them, hope they will spread the word.
Girls are looking at the computer and sharing memories, James is recovering from a baseball to the head in catch, and Jonathan & Andre are still playing catch...an hourly passtime this summer.
Just a day in our lives..and to let you know that we are doing well...looking forward to seeing some friends and family this weekend, and finishing a lot of things on our old home.
Love from Alesia & Chris
