When Eric is gone I try and do little projects that I have been putting off.  This project was put off … These are the Christmas and New Year’s cards that we have received — I try and make a collage every two years or so.  Eric and I had so much fun tonight looking at the many faces of people we love!  Those who encourage us, pray for us, provide for us when we are back in the U.S., inspire us to stick closer with Jesus;  our beloved community here in Sanda (look at the real little little people – those were mostly pictures on Japanese new year cards!) and in Japan,  our family.   This is a neat way for our kids to remember the many people who are part of our community – even those we only get to see every other year or so.  What treasures!
