Clearly, God is saying, buy your own jet!!

I write a quick hello from Bucharest, Romania! Just sitting in the kitchen at Shannon's 10th story apartment, waiting for some homemade meatballs to cook, watching the snowfall over the city. I seem to have allowed the American blizzard to follow me to Romania, although I swear there wasn't that much room in my suitcase for it! ....
And I remember the last time I tried to leave the country, only to be welcome by Hurricane Sandy on the east coast. This lead to an unplanned but most welcome extra few days with Stark....
And I think about how many times I busy my schedule, only for God to make room for rest. 

We had lots of plans to cross things off Shannon's bucket list for her time left in Romania. But, shhh, don't tell her, I really enjoy just being here. I loved church this morning.and worshipping with fellow Christians in a different language ( this always makes me feel like I'm experiencing a little piece of heaven!) I just like having her close by again. "Comorica mea" is what the Romanians affectionately call " my little treasure"... It's been a blessing to see her embrace another culture and experience life outside of our American bubble.  

I feel content.
